Setting Goals

Send us a text

Episode 18 of Despite the Limits is the third in a series of podcasts exploring practical steps you can take when you feel stuck or simply cannot seem to get started moving toward your dream.

In this episode I talk with more detail about step two – “Setting Goals”. Goal setting can keep us from moving forward in our efforts to succeed for a couple of reasons. One reason is because we simply just don’t make them. The other reason, and the focus of this episode is our goals are not expressed in a way we can actually take action on them. That is where SMART goals come in to play.  SMART is an acronym that stands for – Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Time-bound.

For review, the six steps are:

1.Overcome Limiting Beliefs
