Live Life the Way You Want to Be Remembered
A profound idea from a five-minute TED Talk by David Brooks (watch here) sparked a shift in how I think about life’s priorities. It introduced the concept of Resume Goals and Eulogy Goals—two distinct ways of defining success and fulfillment. Building on my previous article, Lifestyle Millionaire, which advocates for a balanced approach to life—physical health, mental and emotional well-being, relationships, financial freedom, self-improvement, quality nutrition, and leisure—this framework challenges us to consider not just what we achieve but how we are remembered. The Two Types of Goals Resume Goals These goals focus on external achievements: the skills you acquire, the accolades you earn, and the milestones you reach in your career. They’re the accomplishments that look impressive on paper but don’t necessarily define the essence of who you are. Eulogy Goals Eulogy goals reflect your inner character—the traits and values people celebrate when your life is remembered. They emphasize qualities like kindness, honesty, courage, and the positive impact you have on others. While both types of goals play a role in life, eulogy goals hold deeper significance because they shape the legacy you leave behind. Why Eulogy Goals Matter Dr. Seuss eloquently captured the essence of eulogy goals when he said:“To the world you may be one person; but to one person you may be the world.” This quote highlights the profound importance of how we touch others’ lives. Eulogy goals aren’t about fame or fortune—they’re about the love, kindness, and integrity that leave a lasting impact. While resume goals focus on building a life of external success, eulogy goals emphasize building a life of meaning and connection. They’re embodied in the moments when you go out of your way to help someone, show empathy, or stand by your values even when it’s difficult. Living with Eulogy Goals in Mind To align your life with eulogy goals, reflect on these questions: Living with eulogy goals means prioritizing relationships over recognition, integrity over ambition, and purpose over productivity. It’s about striving to be the kind of person whose legacy is defined not by what they achieved but by how they made others feel. A Legacy Worth Remembering In a world that often prioritizes resume goals, embracing eulogy goals takes courage. It’s a deliberate choice to live authentically, guided by the qualities that matter most. By focusing on your eulogy goals, you create a life that leaves a profound and lasting impact—one that truly honors the person you aspire to be. I am incredibly grateful to be part of a community that lifts each other up, challenges us to lead our best lives, and inspires us to become the best versions of ourselves. Together, we can create legacies worth cherishing.
Athlete of the Month
We are proud to announce the athlete of the month is Natalie Ferris (NATA!!) and what a month it has been!!!! Since her parents (Kim & Mark) purchased a CrossFit membership as part of her 13th birthday present, we have had the honor of being a part of Nata’s life and watched her develop into the amazing person she is today. Nata moved away to pursue her passion and love of theater (university) at the start of 2019- so although not for great reason we couldn’t be happier to have had her back during the past few months. This past few months Nata’s training has gone from strength to strength (regular Zoom training and now back in the box). She is absolutely smashing it in all aspects of fitness. Most recently achieving personal best in Cleans, Snatch and cardio workouts (which was not generally her forte). Nata your hard work is paying off. You are a huge inspiration!!! We love having you back. Nata will receive a gift pack including a treatment from Body Mechanics Myotherapy (thanks to Aden) https://www.facebook.com/bodymechanicsmyotherapy/and a B-Fresh voucher. Get to know more about Nata below:The Ferris’s (All 3 of them) Mark, Kim & Nata- If you have met Nata’s parents Mark & Kim you will understand what makes Nata so special – This apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. If you haven’t met them then you need to!!! Life is better with this family in it. – What made you start CrossFit?When we first moved to Australia at the end of 2012, my parents started CrossFit. They would talk about it non-stop, discuss their strategies at dinner, and argue over proper technique. It seemed like they were loving it! So about a year later, right around my 13th birthday, I started CrossFit and have been doing it ever since! – What are your favourite CrossFit moments?There are so many memorable moments throughout the years…! First push up, pull-up, double under. My first competition was the Clash On The Coast. I have always loved Olympic Lifting, and I competed at a state level when I was in high school. One particular moment that comes to mind was during the 2018 Open and I was unable to participate because of my knee injury. I was the cheerleader/counter and I witnessed my awesome mom get a new PB for her clean! Photo below! It seems that every week there are awesome moments that mark our personal achievements – just last week, I got a 62.5kg snatch! Yahoo! – What are your other passions in life and how does CrossFit help (if it does).I am half-way through my Acting degree at the Queensland Conservatorium and my passions in life include singing, dancing, performing, baking, and travel. CrossFit has not only improved my health and made me fitter, but it has allowed me to grow as a person! It has taught me discipline, organisation, and how to form and stick to good habits. – What does Coastal CrossFit mean to you and how has it impacted you?Coastal CrossFit is my second family and this community has literally watched me grow up! As much as I love the Arts, CrossFit is a place where I can step out of my normal world and challenge myself in different ways to my professional life! The Coastal CrossFit community has been so supportive of me over the last 6 years or so by coming to my shows, CrossFit Comps and more!
