How about the goal of zero side effects on those psych meds they are pushing? In my experience they most often push meds to alleviate the symptoms that bother other people at the expense of a persons physical health.
I'd say my goal would be to achieve a meaningful gainful life with the least amount of medication and using as many of the alternative methods such as eating healthy and meditating as possible to achieve a reduction in symptoms.
