In this week's episode, I share my three-part framework for achieving your goals and, in almost the same breath, talk about why the goal isn't really the point.
Confused?
All will become clear when you listen to this episode where I also talk about:
- why the process is more important than the result;
- how attending Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO Live influenced my decision to record this episode now rather than later; and
- why whether you achieve a goal or not doesn't define you.

What does it mean to live life Lit!?
In episode two, I talked about what The Triple C Project is. I broke down the three C's, clarity, confidence and courage. And I talked about why this podcast is a project.
But if you listen to the intro, you'll notice that I talk about why this podcast is helping you gain clarity, confidence and courage. And the reason why is so you can live life lit!
Living life lit is something that I talk about a lot, I talk about it on my social media, I talk about it on my website I've spoken about it in podcast interviews. And some people just get it instantly. As soon as you talk about living life lit, they love it, they get this feeling inside themselves, and they can picture what that life is for them.
And for other people, they're not quite sure. They don't quite know what lit! means. And that's okay. So, as we're still early on in The Triple C Project, I want to give you a clearer idea of what's going on, what you can expect, what I'm about, what I'm trying to help you with.
So I felt that this was a good moment to answer the question, what does it mean to live life lit?

The Triple C Project - You Are Not Your Goals
Transcript
I don't think that having a goal is a problem. In fact, I would say that goals are important because part of our life's work is about fulfilling our purpose. It's about doing things that make us happy, that make us fulfilled. And if we want something, there's no reason why we shouldn't go after that. But where I feel the problem is, is when striving for the goal consumes you to the point that you're, you're not present, you're not content. In t
