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.

Brendan’s Story Brendan “Hursty” Hurst was killed on the 15/07/07 while serving in Iraq as a civilian contractor training local police officers as a result of injuries sustained during an ambush on the outskirts of Bagdad. Brendan had previously served as a Police Officer in the Queensland Police Force for over 15 years and was highly regarded and respected by his colleagues. Brendan was partner to Tanya and Father to Max. Sadly, Max was only a few weeks old when Brendan passed away. He is survived and will always be in the hearts of his partner, Tanya Cashin and son Max Hurst. It is our honour to conduct an annual Memorial WOD for Brendan on the anniversary of his death (15/07/17) and would love to see maximum attendance on this day. Together with Tanya, we have created a workout that is inspired by Brendan’s training style and regardless of your physical prowess, this is a chance to celebrate the life of someone who passed too soon with your best effort. “Hursty” 15 Rounds for time of: Sprint 100m 7 Front squats 60/40kg Sprint 100m 7 Burpee Pull-ups (jump to a pull-up bar that is 30cm above standing reach) For any affiliates out there with members (especially first responder/military) who would like to be part of this workout – we welcome you to be involved.
