Identifying "Ecological" Goals
★Internal conflict
★Unrealistic expectations
★Overemphasis on others
★Disengaged
★Frustrated
★Distressed
★Procrastination
★Minimal effort
★Avoidance
When you just cannot seem to achieve certain goals, you might blame it on procrastination, not having the time, or not being good enough – but the answer could lie in the fact that the goals are not “ecological” (i.e. they are incongruent with one of your core values or objectives). For example, if you value spending time with family and friends, then seeking a demanding, high-octane career is likely to leave you feeling stuck and empty (and vice versa…).
I can help you identify and assess goals in the context of your values and specific circumstances so you can decide which to keep, which to change, and even whether any should be thrown out altogether.
