Why don’t we reach our goals?What stops us from taking action and getting to where we want to be?

• If you fail to plan, you plan to fail• Force yourself to get practical about where you want to be• Don’t pick generic goals like "be healthier" or "have a better reputation at work" -

you can't really prove you've gotten there• Come up with goals that you can actually measure -- like "I'm going to go the gym 3

times a week," or "run in a 5K," or "get a positive review from my boss," or "get invited to speak at a conference"

1. Some of us don’t make a plan

• It can be tough to start

• Some people are better at achieving goals when they are big, high stakes changes

• ”Once you step on that roller coaster there's no going back"

2. Some of us don't follow through

3. Some of us are missing a key ingredient

• Missing a key ingredient can stop you in your tracks• Gary Vaynerchuk says "What's holding you back? Truly, what is it? Do you need to

quit a job? Ask a relative for money? Hire someone to actually build the app for you? Whether it's money or time, you just need to figure it out."

• Find out what that missing element might be for you• Resources, or support, or the perspective of a coach?

4. Some of us aren't realistic

• If you reach for the stars, you may not get one, but you won't end up with a handful of mud either

• But many of us don't break our goal into manageable chucks that are actually achievable

• Your goals should be S.M.A.R.T. (Simple, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-bound)

5. Some of us don't prioritize

• People procrastinate, and don't take the steps needed • Or feel overwhelmed and don't know where to start• When presented with infinite choices, most people choose none • Meaning: our goals are not important enough to get us motivated to attack them• Your goals have to have priority in your daily life to enable you to succeed
