What It Means
Imagine you are the captain of a ship. Your crew needs to know where you are going. This phrase is your compass. It tells everyone exactly what you want to finish. It is not just a wish. It is a promise of action. You use it to focus everyone’s brain on one task. It makes you look like a professional who knows their stuff.
How To Use It
Put this phrase at the very beginning. Say your greeting first. Then, drop this line. Follow it with the word to and an action. For example, My objective today is to explain the new rules. Keep it simple. Do not list ten things. One or two objectives are plenty. If you have more, use the plural objectives.
When To Use It
This is your best friend in a business meeting. Use it when you start a presentation. It is great for job interviews too. Tell the recruiter, My objective today is to show why I’m a fit. You can even use it when teaching someone a skill. It helps a student know what to expect. It works anywhere you need to lead.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use this at a bar with friends. You will sound like a robot. My objective today is to drink one beer is weird. Avoid it during a romantic dinner. It kills the mood instantly. Also, do not use it if you are not in charge. It can sound a bit bossy if you are not the leader.
Cultural Background

It shows you value other people's time. In countries like the US, being direct is a sign of respect. It shows you are a go-getter.
Common Variations
If objective feels too heavy, try goal. You can say My goal today is... for a softer touch. In a very casual office, try I want to get through.... If you are feeling fancy, use I aim to.... For a group effort, say Our mission today is.... All of these keep the focus on the result.
