Must Goals: The Art and Science of Authentic Goal-Setting for Lasting Change

Most people set goals from the outside in—focusing on tasks, metrics, or willpower—only to lose momentum weeks later. Must Goals reveals a different path: a complete system for setting goals that arise from your authentic identity, your deepest values, and the purpose you are called to fulfill.

In this groundbreaking book, Stephen Rue introduces the I AM SMART TO ACT™ Goals Method, an advanced, identity-driven evolution of classic SMART goals. Instead of chasing outcomes shaped by pressure or comparison, you learn to create goals aligned with who you truly are—and who you are becoming. This method integrates the best research in psychology, habit formation, motivation science, neuroplasticity, and personal transformation, guiding you to design goals that lead to lasting change, not temporary effort.

Across every major life domain—health and vitality, relationships, career achievement, financial well-being, personal growth, spirituality, and contribution—Must Goals helps you clarify your “Must”: the nonnegotiable commitments that express your core self. Through practical tools, reflection exercises, mindset shifts, and real-world examples, you discover how to align beliefs, values, standards, personal narrative, and purpose with actionable, measurable goals.

You will learn how to:
• Build identity-based habits that create consistent progress
• Rewrite limiting beliefs that quietly sabotage achievement
• Design aligned goals rooted in purpose and meaning
• Use micro-goals and systems to maintain momentum
• Strengthen courage, tenacity, perseverance, and grit
• Turn setbacks into powerful catalysts for growth
• Create a personalized Must Alignment Map connecting identity to outcomes

Whether you want to improve your health, deepen your relationships, advance your career, strengthen your finances, or elevate your inner life, this book gives you a proven, whole-life framework for achieving goals that matter.

Must Goals is more than a goal-setting guide—it is a transformational roadmap for becoming the person you are meant to be.
