Let's do a bit of a throwback.

I remember when I was in highschool, I literally had no idea what I was doing.

I mean...

I knew I had to go school, study hard...and get a high atar to get into Uni.

But the thing was...

I had no idea what subjects I wanted to do...

I had no idea what ATAR I wanted...

I had no idea what tests scores I needed to get a high ATAR...

I had no idea which University course to take part in...

I mean I had a decent idea, but it was VERY VERY FOGGY AND BLURRY.

Are you feeling this way atm?

Well, if so...I'm here to tell you the reason why.

THE REASON WHY YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE no idea where your life is going is because:

You have NO CLEAR SPECIFIC GOALS. Straight up. You know it's true.

You need to do some goal-setting for yourself and LITERALLY write down your goals and stick it on your wall to remind yaself every day.

and in today's podcast...that's exactly what we're going to be going through.

The team and I have put together a quick 8 minute episode to help you with getting your life back together through SETTING GOALS!

We’re all taught the same thing right …. Go to school, get a good ATAR, get into that uni course and then get that full-time career job.

But the thing is…most of us still don’t know what JOB we want?

SO what happens…we go through school and university but we’re doing a course we’re a bit unsure about, end up at jobs that we realise we don’t even like that much, and we then question our whole life:

WHERE DID IT ALL GO WRONG?
