Four F's Goal Setting Framework
A personal goal-setting system that organizes life objectives into four categories: Family, Fitness, Finances, and Fun
How It Works
Creates balanced life planning by forcing consideration of multiple life dimensions rather than focusing solely on work or money goals
Components
Family: relationship goals, communication improvements, shared activities
Fitness: health metrics, workout routines, physical challenges
Finances: income targets, business launches, investment goals
Fun: travel plans, hobbies, social activities, experiences
When to Use
Annual planning, quarterly reviews, or when feeling unbalanced in life priorities
When Not to Use
When you need to focus intensively on one area, during crisis periods, or if you prefer simpler planning methods
Anti-Patterns to Avoid
Example
“Someone planning 2024 might set: Family - weekly date nights, Fitness - run a 10K, Finances - launch side business, Fun - visit Japan”
