One place for every goal you are actually serious about
The life goals dashboard pulls every goal across Career, Health, Finance, Relationships, and other domains into one persistent view so you can see what is on track, what is slipping, and where your life is out of balance. No account required.
Click Add Goal below and your dashboard builds as you add goals across domains.
Track life satisfaction across your domains with goals, key results, and the WOOP framework. Stay focused, measure progress, and build momentum across every domain of life.
What this solves: the goal fragmentation problem
Scattered goal systems create two invisible problems. First, you lose the single-view overview that lets you triage. When your running plan is in one app and your career roadmap is in a Notion doc, you have no way to see at a glance that one domain is consuming all your time at the expense of another. Second, you lose historical context. Knowing you were at 40% six weeks ago and are at 42% today tells you the pace is wrong, even if the number looks acceptable on its own.
The life goals tracker solves both. Every goal lives on one screen. Progress is timestamped so trend lines are real. You should be able to tell which goal needs urgent attention within five seconds of opening the dashboard. That is the design target, and it shapes every layout decision in the tool.
A secondary problem is the “shiny goal” cycle, where you abandon a six-month goal after six weeks because you cannot see or feel any momentum. Milestone logging and the progress timeline make incremental movement visible. Small wins register. That changes how the goal feels to work on.

Dashboard components explained
The dashboard has four main components, each solving a different part of the multi-goal tracking problem.
Goal cards
Each goal gets a card with its domain badge, a visual progress bar, the last check-in date, and quick-access buttons for editing, reviewing, and archiving. Cards are colour-coded by domain so your eye can sort them immediately. The card is the unit of attention in the dashboard. You scan cards first, then drill into the one that needs work.
Domain balance radar chart
The radar chart plots average goal progress across all seven life domains. A perfectly balanced life would produce a regular heptagon. Most people’s charts are heavily weighted toward one or two domains and nearly flat on others. That shape is not a judgment. It is information. Use it to decide whether the imbalance is intentional or a slow drift you want to correct.
Milestone timeline
Every milestone you define across all goals lands on a shared timeline ordered by date. Upcoming milestones surface as alerts. Completed milestones show as checkmarks with the logged date. The timeline gives you a cross-goal view of what is due in the next 30 days so nothing sneaks up on you. Most people miss deadlines not because they forgot the goal but because they lost track of the next concrete step.
Stats bar
The top bar shows total active goals, average progress across all goals, goals on track, and goals behind. These four numbers are the executive summary of your goal portfolio. Check them first each week before drilling into individual cards.
The theory behind the life goals dashboard: BHAG, WOOP, and OKR in one system
The dashboard integrates three goal frameworks that are individually strong but more powerful in combination. Understanding the role each plays helps you fill out the goal detail panels with intention rather than just filling in fields.
BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) provides the long-range direction. Each goal in the dashboard has a BHAG field in the Plan tab. This is not the goal you expect to finish this quarter. It is the horizon you are walking toward. A strong BHAG makes it obvious whether any given week’s effort actually moves you in the right direction.
WOOP (Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan) adds implementation realism. The Define tab walks you through identifying the most likely obstacles to your goal and drafting if-then responses in advance. Research by Gabriele Oettingen shows that mental contrasting, the pairing of positive outcome visualisation with honest obstacle identification, significantly improves follow-through compared to positive thinking alone. WOOP builds that contrast into your setup process.
OKR (Objectives and Key Results) provides the measurement structure. Each goal’s key results are the milestones you log progress against in the Review tab. The weighting system lets you mark some key results as higher-effort or higher-impact, so the overall progress calculation reflects what actually matters rather than giving equal weight to trivial and critical milestones. The personal goal command center uses OKR logic to make progress legible at both the individual goal level and the portfolio level.
Who gets the most from this tool
The goal progress dashboard is most useful for people managing five or more active goals across more than two life domains at the same time. If you have one goal and it is fully consuming your attention, a simpler tracker is fine. If you have many goals and no single view of all of them, this tool is built for exactly that situation.
It works particularly well for:
- Professionals in high-growth phases who are simultaneously advancing their career, managing personal health, and building financial stability, and need a way to keep all three visible without letting any one dominate by default.
- People in life transitions such as career changes, new parenthood, or relocation, where old priorities shift and new ones need to be deliberately set rather than inherited from the previous routine.
- Anyone who has abandoned goals mid-year before and wants a system that keeps momentum visible through the slow middle phases of long-horizon goals.
- Coaches and accountability partners who want to share a structured view of a client’s full goal portfolio rather than working from a verbal check-in alone.
The multi-goal tracker is less suited to team goal management or OKR systems for organisations. It is designed for one person’s life, not a department’s roadmap.

Frequently asked questions
Where is my data stored and is it private?
Your data is stored in your browser’s localStorage. It never leaves your device. There is no server, no account, and no sync. This means it is fully private and works offline, but it also means your data does not transfer automatically to other browsers or devices. Use the built-in export function to save a JSON backup before clearing browser data or switching devices.
How many goals should I track at once?
Three to seven active goals is the practical range for a single dashboard. Fewer than three and the domain balance radar chart does not have enough data to be meaningful. More than seven and the cognitive load of the review process starts to undermine the value of tracking. You can archive completed goals at any time so the active view stays focused and useful.
What is the difference between the Plan, Define, and Review tabs in each goal?
Plan is where you set the BHAG context and write your WOOP analysis: the desired outcome, the main obstacle, and your if-then response plan. Define is where you set concrete key results with target dates. Review is where you log weekly progress against each key result, mark milestones complete, and add notes. The three tabs correspond to the three phases of goal work: direction, structure, and execution.
What happens if I clear my browser cache or use a private browsing window?
Clearing browser data removes localStorage, which means your goal data is lost. Private or incognito windows do not persist localStorage between sessions at all. Export your data to JSON before any browser maintenance and avoid using the tool in incognito mode for goals you want to keep. The export button is in the top-right toolbar of the dashboard.
Can I use this on my phone?
Yes, the dashboard is responsive and works on mobile browsers. That said, the single-screen overview is most useful on a tablet or desktop display, where you can see goal cards, the radar chart, and the milestone timeline simultaneously without scrolling. On a phone you will see everything, but one section at a time.
How does this differ from using a spreadsheet or a goal app?
A spreadsheet can store goal data but requires you to build every chart, formula, and alert yourself. A dedicated goal app often requires a subscription and stores your data on someone else’s server. This dashboard provides a structured visual interface with built-in progress calculations, a domain radar chart, and a milestone timeline, and your data stays local. The trade-off is that it does not sync across devices unless you export and re-import manually.
Is my data private and secure?
Yes. All information you enter stays in your local browser storage. Nothing is shared with, processed by, or saved on the Goals and Progress servers or any third-party provider. The trade-off is that clearing your browser cache will erase your data. Some tools include a save and load function so you can export your inputs as a local file and reload them later.
Start tracking your goals today
The dashboard is ready to use right now. No signup, no download, no waiting. Scroll back up, add your first goal, and see the domain balance radar come to life as you build out your goal portfolio. The hardest part of any goal system is the first entry. Make it a real goal, give it a real target date, and the rest of the setup follows naturally.
