Front-Facing Goals: These are observable in public spheres, such as public speaking or social interactions, where the energy you transmit is crucial. High stress and negativity can lead to unfavorable first impressions.
Back-Facing Goals: These involve more solitary tasks like coding or writing, typically devoid of direct interpersonal interaction. However, stress from the work mindset still impacts one's creativity and productivity.
The mindset you carry into these tasks, even when alone, can influence your performance. For instance, a negative attitude towards work can result in a long-term association between stress and productivity, discouraging motivation and creativity.
