WHY Your Goals Aren’t Working – STP018
Episode 18- We've spent some time looking at goals. No, not football goals - life goals! We've gathered together 5 KEY actions for setting effective goals, plus ONE missing thing that most of the resource doesn't tell you. It's not a secret, it's in the title!
Some of the stuff in there is:
* The resource out there on setting goals
* 5 steps which many people agree on when setting successful goals
* 1) Visualising your goal - invoke all of your senses
* The brain's link between sounds, smells and memory
* 2) Writing your goal down - using the S.M.A.R.T. acronym
* Be Specific about what the goal is
* Define how you would Measure whether you've achieved the goal
* Use 'Action' language - Do, Become, Develop
* Realistic - either take this literally and make the goals realistic, or take the 'Big Hairy Audacious' approach and set really stretching goals. You decide!
* Set a Time limit to when you want to achieve the goal by
* 3) Sharing your goal
* Two schools of thought on this, make them public, or keep them private. Here are two perspectives:
* Fact Company say make it public
* Derek Sivers says keep them private
* 4) Break it down
* Be sure to split bigger goals into smaller steps
* Be clear on the NEXT step
* Make it something you can do within 24 hours
* 5) Plan
* Set yourself dates in the diary to review your progress AND to celebrate your success
* The one thing missing from most of the advice - WHY
* Why WHY?
* Never underestimate the power of stating the obvious
* 30 million people have given up smoking this way
* 5 whys according to iSixSigma
* 5 whys according to Toyota
* A version delivered from our kitchen table
* How you can make reviewing progress more satisfying
* Use a good planner to manage your progress - this is nice Action Day Academic Diary 17/18
* The importance of being flexible - your goals don't have to be set in stone
* In fact if you set the wrong ones, and you've changed them, then the process works!
