When goals won't work.
Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.
Like seeing you again, it's fun. I love being here and being able to have our conversations on a nightly basis. And I love to be able to actually talk back and forth with you.
So if you ever have any questions or comments, leave them down below.
I'm Brian Pombo. If this is your first time, I am a business investor,
I have nearly three years' worth of content going back all the way on nearly a nightly basis.
So you can see that over at BrianJPombo.com/media.
You go to the media section and go and check that out. And wherever you're watching or listening to this, you can also see what we have archived there on whatever format you're watching or listening on.
Now, I want to talk a little bit about goal setting because it is one of those things that it's necessary. But I think quite often gets it overshadows everything else as being the only thing that's necessary.
I don't think it is the main driver of setting a goal, I do believe that it is necessary to have one, especially if you're dealing with more than one person in the direction of your goal.

You're just kind of tossing things around trying to figure it out. I had a great conversation yesterday with a fellow named Shane Russell.
Shane is running a company called Spirit of the Fair. He has a background in working within the fair industry and he wanted to see okay, how can we take this and apply it year-round?
Too many different organizations and businesses?
How can we allow everybody to synergistically work together and use some of these concepts that he came across while marketing in the fare industry?
So it is really is it's an interesting concept. And he has been working a good three years straight from belief, I remember from our conversation, you'll be able to hear that when it comes out over at the Grants Pass VIP podcast. GrantsPassVIP.com.
But before then I just want to tell you a little bit about his story because I find it interesting. And it's it's, it's a story that I find myself in quite often, which is you end up having a whole lot of things you'd like to do a whole lot of things, you're interested in a whole lot of things that you may be good at.
On top of that, so you got the things you're passionate about the things that i...
