“I’m not saying it was your fault but I know you could’ve done more. You’re so naive yet so” // The Kooks

In part 2 of this series (if can you call 2 episodes a series?) we get the big dog (woof) Brad Hibberd on to discuss goals + goal setting. 

Goal setting is a really interesting topic isn’t it. 

How do you go about it? Could you have done more? Do you need to do less? Is there a right or wrong way? Do I go big or go home? Do I go big and go home? Do good things come in conservative small goal setting packages to put next to my self esteem issue and insecurities? (Offspring self esteem reference deliberate). 

Yeh for sure some things are really easy to say after reading De Suess’ epic “oh the places you’ll go!” but then when the rubber hits the road it can be very easy to get distracted or diverted to another stratosphere and then question how on earth did I end up here!!!! 

So today we discuss how to go about planning, setting + executing goal setting. 

Would love to hear your thoughts on these 2 episodes pls reach out with any thoughts you have or how you like to go about goal setting. 

Enjoy the pod! xx
