Discover a revolutionary approach to goal setting that eliminates procrastination and guarantees success. Learn how to rewire your brain, focus on actions over outcomes, and become the person who achieves your targets consistently and enjoyably.

Summary:

In this episode, we uncover a game-changing strategy for setting and achieving goals while eliminating procrastination. The key is to shift from focusing on goals to focusing on targets and the actions required to reach them. By breaking down targets into smart initiatives and action habits, you can consistently execute and reward the inputs that lead to your desired outcomes.

We discuss the common pitfalls of goal setting, such as focusing too much on the end result rather than the process, and rewarding only the achievement of the goal instead of the actions taken. To overcome these obstacles, we introduce a seven-step process that makes goal achievement more likely and enjoyable.

This process involves defining your targets, breaking them down into initiatives and action habits, incentivizing and rewarding action milestones, and continually reviewing and refining your actions. By becoming the person who takes the actions required to achieve your targets, you develop an identity aligned with success, making goal achievement a natural byproduct of who you are.

Say goodbye to procrastination and hello to a new, action-oriented approach to goal setting. With this proven method, you can rewire your brain for success and finally achieve anything you set your mind to. Stop procrastinating and start making progress today!
