WCP212 Two-story goals

The Writing Coach Podcast with Rebecca L. Weber

We often notice that an article works on two levels: On an obvious level it’s about X, but what it’s *really* about is Y.

Goals have a similar dynamic, especially when they’re well chosen and intentionally take us outside of our comfort zones.

On one level, you identify a goal that’s in line with your values and vision for yourself as a writer.

And on another level, the pursuit and achievement of this goal shifts who you are. Your beliefs, your identify, your behaviors, all have to change to get the desired result. This is what the goal is about on a deeper level.
