💡 Weekly Thought Exercise: Anti-Goals to Keep Yourself on Track
I read about this framework a few years ago and I still think about and use it to this day.
This week's thought exercise is inspired by Andrew Wilkinson’s anti-goal framework.
Instead of writing out a list of goals that he wants to achieve in his business, Andrew writes out everything that he DOESN'T want.
Long days filled with meetings
Having to wake up super early
Constantly traveling and not getting to spend time with family
He uses these anti-goals (the reverse of his actual goals) to tell him what to say yes and no to.
If something gets him closer to "achieving" an anti-goal...he says no.
This week's reflection will take about 10-20 minutes and here's what you'll have after the exercise:
How to make sure you DON'T hit your goals (your list of antigoals)
A list of what to do to make sure you achieve your goals
A daily, weekly, and quarterly to do list to reaching these goals
Here's the prompt to copy and paste into Claude.ai (you don't need to add any context):
