The ONE Thing

313. Gary Keller on Goals, Habits, and Thinking Big


Listen Later

At last year’s Goal Setting Retreat, Gary Keller said this: “If you have big goals and you haven’t achieved them yet, there are only two reasons that you’re where you are instead of where you want to be: it’s either the actions you took or the relationships you have.” And he’s right.
