“A goal is not just about what you accomplish. It’s about what you become,” says Michael Hyatt, author, business coach, and CEO and founder of Michael Hyatt & Company. I believe that statement is even more true for life story writers because we learn, grow, develop, and gain perspective and insight we did not have before translating our lives into words.

In this master class, we use Hyatt’s approach to goal setting and apply those tools to our writing projects. Discover the two types of goals, characteristics of a good goal, ways to install your goals and hold yourself accountable, and the importance of celebrating the achievement of your goals.
