‘Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that?
We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves.
We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained.’ – Marie Curie
This is a personal development self-help book suitable for anyone who wants to be more deliberate and intentional with identifying, setting and achieving goals.
Whilst there is no single magic bullet for the demands of today’s fast-paced world, there are practical solutions that can make a real difference. Deb recognises the layered complexity people are navigating – not just in their professional roles, but also in the fullness of their personal lives. Her refreshingly honest and grounded approach to goal setting moves beyond tick-box templates and surface-level tactics, offering space for clarity, intention, and sustainable progress.
Despite good intentions and well-designed plans, many of us struggle to follow through on the goals that once felt deeply important.
Deb explains:
•
Why some goals fizzle out, even when they seem right
•
How to tell the difference between meaningful goals and shiny distractions
•
A holistic, values-driven decision-making process to guide next steps
•
Tools to overcome inertia, self-doubt and the myth of needing to do it all.
With real-life stories, reflective questions and actionable strategies, this book is the guide to clarity, confidence and consistent progress — on individual terms. Deb shares her own experience and is open about her own fears and failures. She offers practical suggestions, whether the reader is at a crossroads, starting something new or simply ready to move forward with intention. This is the roadmap to making an impact.
