My Best Tips for Setting and Achieving Goals


Listen Later

Can I share a “fun fact” about myself with you?

I’ve been setting goals since I was a child.

Obviously, at the time, I didn’t really know they were goals.

They were just things I wanted, that I would write or speak…I’d even share with others.

I can safely say that setting goals from an early age until now has contributed IMMENSELY to all that I’ve accomplished today.

Sure, I haven’t achieved everything I set out too…but I either keep working towards those things or I align my goals to where I’m at now.

My point is that to be successful in life, you should be setting and working towards your goals. Not sure where to start?

In this episode, I’m sharing some of my best tips for setting goals and staying on track to achieving them!
