Set Your Goals is the debut studio album by the punk rock band CIV.[4] It was released in October 1995 on Lava Records. The album is best known for the hit single "Can't Wait One Minute More."

Although listed as co-producer in the inlay, Walter Schreifels has indicated that he was the main songwriter for the album (despite not being a member of the band).[5]

"Can't Wait One Minute More" and "Choices Made" were released as music videos.

"Can't Wait One Minute More" features vocals from Lou Koller of Sick Of It All.

The San Francisco Bay-area pop punk/hardcore act Set Your Goals named themselves after this album.[6]
