We've all been there—setting goals, fueled with enthusiasm, only to find ourselves stuck in a web of unmet expectations. Goal setting can be like navigating a maze blindfolded; sometimes, you hit dead ends. But that's absolutely okay. In fact, making mistakes while goal setting is not just normal; it's practically a rite of passage.
I have moonshot to publish a book. I don’t mean the easy way—the process of writing the book and getting it accepted. The smaller goals are I need to write at times, I would like to hang out with Netflix, review the writing, hear criticism, and make adjustments as needed.
Yes, I see the result. A “pot of gold at the end of the rainbow” always. When I was competing and coaching it was a little easier, I think to break the road to success down into pieces. Show up at practice, work hard, and achieve some success. Doing that with others was a little easier, even though wrestling has an individual component to the sport. I think if I take the coaching mindset and pretend I am teaching myself a “single-leg takedown” and break that down, it will be easier to refocus.
Presently, timelines are non-existent. That is a problem.
Working towards a goal, for me, I think, works better if I am working with others. I agree that many times, it seems easier to get caught up in the irrelevant processes and steps because it is being busy but not productive. I am caught in that cycle. I need yo PCAN again.
I am not sure how to incorporate that now. I think through listening and talking with others and how they reach certain goals. Goals are singular, but also some stuff needs to be shared to be accountable.
Your clarity is like that cinnamon kick in the morning, delicious and healthy!
