What Are the Milestones for Your Career Goals this Year? (Issue 682)
The next update for your free Invincible Career Guide - Week 1 of May
New month, new theme. May is all about Making Progress on Your Goals. How can you use habits, calendaring, and accountability to improve your odds of success?
Grab the content of this week’s update so you can paste it into your copy of the Invincible Career Guide. It’s about establishing milestones and tasks for your most important goals.
I like it when you pursue goals that let you enjoy smaller wins during the journey. What milestones would you like to reach as you make progress? Think about measures that will help you stay on track. You might have daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly targets.
For example, if you wanted to write a book:
Daily target - 500 words/day
Milestone 1 - Create an outline
Milestone 2 through X - Completed chapters 2 through X
Final milestone - Rough draft of the full book
The Invincible Career Guide for 2026
I created the companion guide to provide additional structure for the weekly emails I will share with you this year. If you haven’t grabbed your copy yet, use the button below to access and save it.
It’s in Google Slides format, so you can save a copy of the presentation to your own Google Drive in your preferred folder. This will allow you to edit the placeholder text to enter your answers to the questions in the guide.
How to use the guide
Every month this year will have a specific theme.
Each week will have a set of homework questions related to that month’s theme.
I will share a new presentation document with that week’s questions via the newsletter email and in my private community (you’re welcome to join us for free!).
Then download the new presentation, copy and paste the new slides into your editable copy of the guide, and use it to answer the questions.
New slides will come each month. Stay tuned for more emails about those.
