BRX Pro Tip: Goal Setting is Not Enough
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you this morning. Lee, just when I was getting kind of good at this goal-setting thing, you come around and tell me that goal setting is not enough.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:14] Yeah. Well, setting a goal is important, sure, but that’s not going to get you to the goal. It’s just the thing that you’re aiming at. If you want to achieve the goal, you’re going to have to have some path to taking action. And a simple way to kind of build in action is to – I’d like to look at the – you know, take the end in mind. Start at the end of the goal, whatever that goal is. Whether it’s lose 20 pounds, get ten more clients, whatever that goal is, start at the end and just work backwards to see how to best achieve the goal.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:48] If you start at the finish line and see if you can follow your path backwards, you’re going to figure out what you need to do right before you finished and what you have to do right before that, and so on and so on until you get back to the starting point. So, if you really want to move from where you are today to where you’d like to be tomorrow, I would start at, tomorrow, work your way back to see what you have to do today in order to be successful.
