When you talk to people who are successful in their personal lives, that's how they treat life goals. Sounds over-formal but that's life.

1. Get married

2. Buy house (by 30)

3. Have kid 1 by 32, to allow 2 year birth spacing for X children

etc.

People like to be wishy-washy and romantic about finding partners, settling down, having kids... but the people who end up where they want to be are usually far more intentional about it.
