    #103 Goal Setting With A Twist

    LEVEL UP – Episode #103 | Goal Setting with a Twist Most goal setting fails — not because you lack willpower, but because your goals were never designed to work with your brain, habits, and real life. In this episode, Rozanne Marsh breaks down a fresh, science-backed approach to goal setting that helps you stop recycling last year’s patterns and start building the future you actually want. You’ll learn why: • A goal is not a task — it’s a compass • Reviewing the past is about data, not self-judgment • Your nervous system needs clarity before it can support change • Habits form from design, not effort • Consistency matters more than perfection Rozanne introduces her SPARK framework — a practical system that helps goals stick: S — Set the Stage P — Place What You Need A — Align With Your WHY R — Ready Your Time (including floors & ceilings) K — Kindle the Reward She also explains why the 90-Day Year works better than annual goal setting and how shorter focus cycles keep momentum, motivation, and follow-through high. This episode is part of a 4-part series to prepare you for the year ahead: • Finding Your Passion • Goal Setting with a Twist • Vision Boards That Actually Work • Choosing a Word of the Year 00:00 Welcome & Why This Is a Different Kind of Goal-Setting Episode 01:07 Reflection plus Intention - A Goal Is Not a Task — It’s a Compass 01:34 Unpacking the Past Year Without Shame (Gold Mining) 01:55 The Driver’s Ed Story: Why Future Vision Guides the Present 03:05 Imagining the Future You 04:33 Learning from last year with key questions 06:59 The 5-Minute Goal-Setting Brain Dump (50 Goals Exercise 08:50 Sorting Goals by Timeline (3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year+) 10:15 The 5 Whys: Finding the Emotional Reason That Pulls You Through 12:20 How to Know If a Goal Is Worth Pursuing Long-Term 13:25 Why Goals Fail: Patterns, Habits & Design (Not Willpower) 13:42 Introducing SPARK: The Framework That Makes Goals Stick 18:52 The 90 Day Year Explained (Why Shorter Cycles Work Better 20:16 Closing Thoughts: Meeting Your Future Self 21:18 How 14 Weeks Could Change Your Life. 🌱 For Teens LEVEL UP helps teens learn what most people don’t discover until adulthood: How emotions work. How to manage stress instead of being run by it. How to build confidence from the inside out. How to work with fear, setbacks, and triggers — not against them. How to set goals that feel exciting and possible. LEVEL UP gives teens language for what they feel, tools for what they face, and confidence in who they’re becoming. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being aware, resilient, and empowered. 🌿 For Parents & Adults LEVEL UP is also for adults who know that real change starts on the inside. You’ll learn how the brain and body shape reactions, habits, and patterns — and how to regulate your state, heal old triggers, and respond with intention instead of overwhelm. LEVEL UP supports: Emotional regulation and resilience Clarity and self-trust Healthier habits and identity-based goals Stronger relationships and calmer parenting A deeper sense of purpose and direction This isn’t about doing more. It’s about becoming more aligned. LEVEL UP is fully online. It’s engaging, science-backed, and deeply human. Whether you’re a teen stepping into who you’re becoming, or an adult ready to lead your life with clarity — this experience meets you where you are. Your next level isn’t a personality change. It’s an understanding shift. 👉 Explore LEVEL UP classes starting in January: https://www.levelupteen.com/shop #GoalSetting #PersonalDevelopment #Habits #Mindset #90DayYear #SPARKFramework #IdentityBasedGoals #Neuroscience #LifeSkills #TeenDevelopment #AdultLearning #LevelUp #Transformation #Empowerment
