At WiseGoals, we believe goal setting should be about more than productivity or ticking boxes.
It should uplift, include, and energise.
After more than two decades of research into what truly works—for individuals, teams, and communities—we’ve developed an approach that brings together the best of coaching psychology, positive psychology, and purpose-driven leadership.
We’re here to offer something deeper: a way of setting goals that’s bold, meaningful, and profoundly human.

4. Conclusion: A Different Way to Set Goals
To be the best of the best, a goal-setting method must be inclusive rather than exclusive.
It must uplift society, not just the individual.
It must unify, not divide.
And it must help us become better people—together.
Through over 20 years of research, we believe we’ve found the elements that accomplish this.
Whether you’re an individual, a team leader, a business owner, or someone navigating illness, change, or uncertainty—this method adapts and applies.
It draws from coaching psychology, positive psychology, and the science of positive leadership. It invites us to go for goals that matter in a way that brings out the best in ourselves and others.
The WiseGoals Method stands on five powerful foundations drawn from decades of research and practice:
We guide you toward goals that energise and elevate, not just for you—but for those around you.
These include five pillars:
Positive psychology explores what makes life worth living. It helps us understand how joy, resilience, meaning, and even challenge contribute to a fulfilling life. This science shows us that happiness isn't the absence of struggle—it’s the presence of purpose and connection, even through hardship.
"Positive Psychology is the scientific study of that which makes life worth living." — Peterson (2008)
“The content of positive psychology—happiness, flow, meaning, love, gratitude, growth—is human flourishing.” — Seligman (2011)
Coaching psychology helps people change how they think, act, and relate to their goals. Once reserved for executives, these tools are now part of the WiseGoals approach—accessible to everyone.
“Coaching is the art of facilitating the performance, learning, and development of another.” — Downey (2003)
“It’s about unlocking people’s potential to maximise their own performance. Helping them learn rather than teaching them.” — Whitmore (2009)
Our parents, our grandparents, were all traumatised.
They survived tremendous difficulties.
One thing we know about trauma is that it gets passed on from generation to generation.
Over half of the population have reported experiencing multiple adverse childhood experiences. Given how each life takes shape during childhood and habits are formed, it's only natural that we see so many in survival mode—operating based on fear, and controlling others to get what they want.
Understanding the role that trauma plays within us and those around us—seeing that it was nobody's fault, just the flow of trauma through the ages—this realisation is inseparable from our ability to go for virtuous, contributing, positive goals.
The majority of goals we see in society are manifestations of trauma, of fear, of anger, of hurt.
We can set goals that heal ourselves and others.
We can live lives that lift ourselves and others.
We can create goals that make us brim with goodness-filled pride.
Everyone faces inner resistance: fear, self-doubt, avoidance. Going for what truly matters stirs discomfort—it’s normal.
But instead of fighting through it blindly, the WiseGoals approach teaches you how to meet your inner world with skill and compassion.
We make achievement more inclusive by focusing on the emotional journey behind every goal. It’s not about pushing harder—it’s about relating better.

At its heart, WiseGoals is about redefining the culture of goal setting.
We believe goals should:
You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t have to feel ready. You just need to be willing to explore what matters most—to you and to the world.
This is the WiseGoals way.
