Por James Wallace

O que você irá aprender

This course is for people who are tired of forcing themselves to change. If traditional goal setting has left you feeling pressured, inconsistent, or quietly disappointed in yourself, you’re not broken. You’re human. The EASY Method offers a different relationship with goals. One rooted in self-trust, adaptability, and real life. In this course, you’ll learn how to design goals that align with who you are, navigate changing energy and motivation, and stay in motion without turning on yourself when things get hard. This isn’t about productivity or discipline. It’s about creating goals that move with you, not against you. You’ll explore how to: • Create goals that are meaningful, flexible, and sustainable • Navigate peaks and valleys without losing momentum • Build trust through action instead of pressure • Recalibrate when life changes instead of starting over By the end of this course, goals will no longer feel like something you have to push through. They’ll feel like something you can stay in relationship with.

Lição 1

Why Most Goals Fail And What To Do Instead

This lesson names the pattern most of us live in. We get excited, we set a goal, and then the spark fades. Instead of blaming discipline, you learn why many goal systems break down for real humans with real lives. You’ll meet the difference between pressure-based goals and purpose-based goals, and you’ll be introduced to the EASY Method: Effective, Adaptive, Simple, and Yours. This lesson sets the tone for the whole course by helping you shift from proving to becoming.

Lição 2

Effective Goals: Creating Goals That Are Alive And Meaningful

This lesson teaches what “effective” really means inside the EASY Method. Instead of chasing what you’re supposed to want, you’ll create a Hub Goal rooted in meaning and inspiration. You’ll also learn the hub-and-spoke model and why multiple aligned spokes create flexibility and a higher chance of success. The guided inspiration practice helps you clear noise and reconnect with what feels true.

Lição 3

Adaptive Goals And Moving With Life

This lesson reframes adaptation as strength, not failure. You’ll explore how rigidity makes goals brittle and how real progress comes from learning to move with changing seasons. Through stories and metaphors, you’ll practice seeing life’s disruptions as recalibration instead of defeat. You’ll also learn the Three Pivots: adjust the path, shift the pace, or reframe the purpose.

Lição 4

Simple Goals: Designing Clarity, Flow, And Natural Execution

This lesson brings execution into focus by teaching simplicity as clarity in motion. You’ll explore how overthinking disrupts performance, and how flow comes from reducing friction rather than adding complexity. You’ll practice the Three Distillations: purpose, essence, and next step, then refine your hub goal so it feels lighter and more aligned with your real rhythm.

Lição 5

Yours Goals And Authentic Ownership

This lesson is the heart shift. You’ll learn why goals that don’t belong to you activate resistance, procrastination, and burnout, while authentic goals create energy and momentum. Through the archer fable and a workplace story, you’ll feel the difference between borrowed targets and chosen ones. You’ll also learn the Three Alignments: desire, values, and environment, so you can test whether a goal is truly yours while still workable in the world you live in.

Lição 6

Navigation And Execution: Building Spokes That Work In Real Life

This lesson moves from principles into design and execution. You’ll learn Shirzad’s Sage Power of Navigation and how fear-based goal setting triggers the brain’s survival system and ideal self bias. Then you’ll translate your Hub Goal into spokes that fit your real season. You’ll also learn floor and ceiling design so your goals flex with life. The lesson ends with a visualization practice to somatically test whether your spokes feel aligned before you commit to them.

Lição 7

Staying In Motion When Motivation Drops

This lesson addresses the moment where the thought “I can’t do this” shows up. You’ll learn why motivation isn’t meant to be constant, why valleys are part of the terrain, and how people quit when their system isn’t designed for low-energy seasons. You’ll bring the floor and ceiling concept fully to life, then complete a guided visualization to feel “unmotivated” in the body, recognize it as a threshold, and choose the smallest step that keeps movement alive.

Lição 8

Recalibration: A Human Relationship With Goals

This final lesson anchors the deeper skill behind the entire course: self-trust. You’ll explore goals as a living relationship that moves through seasons with you. Recalibration becomes the practice of pausing, listening, and adjusting without self-abandonment. You’ll complete a brief integration practice to feel how you relate to a long-held goal, soften the relationship, and reconnect with presence, honesty, and trust as the way you continue forward.
