PBL Leadership - Goal Setting that Actually Works from Dan Miller and James Clear | E106

Season #5 Episode #106

 January is around the corner, and it's time to set goals and plan for the new year. Even with the busyness of December, a leader needs to carve out time for deep work. 

This episode is about setting goals for the new year and being able to communicate those goals. 

I share quotes and goal setting wisdom from Dan Miller and his goal setting worksheet. Once you have all of your goals, I share the process by James Clear to ruthlessly eliminate unnecessary goals.  

 

Episode Highlights: 

[05:46] People with clear plans and goals don't get depressed. Moving towards the goals we set is how we define success.

[07:19] When we set goals, we need to be fired up about those goals. Set three year goals and work backwards.

[11:13] Go big with your goals and then ruthlessly eliminate the unnecessary ones. Having too many goals will prevent us from achieving the important ones. 

[11:39] James Clear says the goal tells you where to go and the habit gets you there. 

[14:02] Priority mechanisms include the Eisenhower box and the Ivy Lee method.
