Where do your goals come from?

1/

We all set goals.

Some come from a deep personal dream.

Others are inspired by people we admire, books we read, or even moments of frustration where we say: “This has to change.”

Where do your goals come from?

👇 Let’s explore.

2/

For some, goals come from inspiration:

🌍 Travel experiences

✨ A Podcast

📚 A book

🎤 A mentor’s advice

For others, they’re born from necessity:

💸 Finances

💼 Career deadlines

🏃 Health wake-up calls

3/

But here’s the problem:

Most of us set goals in the heat of the moment and then lose track.

Life gets busy. Priorities blur. The spark fades.

That’s why I built Fred.

4/

Fred is a modern web app for goal setting.

Here’s how it works:

💠 Create a goal (title, description, due date)

✨ Split it into steps

🖼️ Build a vision board to keep it alive

🤖 Use AI to generate inspiring, achievable steps

5/

The goal isn’t just writing something down.

It’s keeping that spark alive.

Fred gives you:

✅ Clarity (what you’re aiming for)

✅ Structure (steps to get there)

✅ Inspiration (AI-generated prompts & a Goal Gallery)

6/

We’ve seen people use Fred to:

Run their first half marathon

Save money for a big trip

Start a side project

Improve creativity and well-being

Every story starts with: “I want to…”

So let’s circle back:

@hejsfj My goals come from traveling experiences i had over the years. But turning goals into action items is what really makes the difference.

I usually set my goals from a mix of inspiration and necessity—things I dream about and things I need to tackle. Keeping that spark alive is the hardest part, so tools like Fred sound really helpful.
