What are OKRs?
OKR stands for Objectives and Key Results. It's a goal-setting framework developed at Intel and popularized by Google that helps you set ambitious goals and measure your progress with concrete outcomes.
- Objectives are qualitative goals that describe what you want to achieve. They should be inspiring and actionable.
- Key Results are quantifiable metrics that measure your progress toward the objective. They answer "How will I know when I've achieved it?"
Why Use OKRs for Personal Goals?
The same framework that drives success at top companies can transform your personal productivity.
Focus on What Matters
By limiting yourself to a few key objectives, you avoid spreading yourself too thin and ensure your energy goes toward your most important goals.
Measure Real Progress
Key Results give you concrete metrics to track. Instead of wondering if you're making progress, you'll have clear evidence of your advancement.
Stay Motivated
Seeing your key results move toward completion provides motivation and momentum. Small wins build up to big achievements.
Align Your Actions
When daily tasks connect to larger objectives, every action has purpose. You'll know exactly why you're doing what you're doing.

OKR Best Practices
Tips for getting the most out of your personal OKRs.
Keep It Simple
Start with 2-3 objectives maximum. It's better to fully achieve a few goals than to partially complete many.
Aim for 70%
OKRs should be ambitious. If you're hitting 100% every time, your goals might not be stretching you enough. Aim for 70% achievement.
Review Weekly
Set aside time each week to update your key results and reflect on progress. Regular check-ins keep you on track.
Write Clearly
Key results should be unambiguous. Anyone should be able to look at a key result and know exactly whether it's been achieved.
