What about things like "overcome your biases", "raise the sanity waterline", and "win the stars"?
Or, rather, norms which achieve these goals. These don't seem low-level enough to be norms in themselves.
I don't know the LDS example "Your purpose on earth is to become like God" is pretty big. Big goals are good if they are back up with supportive low-level goals.
You can't get all that much higher than 'win the stars'! :P
