Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, everyone, welcome back to the Scroll Brain Detox. I'm
your host Leo Weston, and today we're diving into something
super important, setting realistic goals and expectations. Ever feel like
you're constantly chasing some mythical perfect version of success, like
you need to be crushing it in every area of

(00:21):
your life all at once. You know that feeling when
you scroll through social media and everyone seems to have
it all figured out. Well, let me tell you that's
a recipe for burnout, frustration, and a whole lot of
self doubt. We're going to break down how to set
goals that are actually achievable, things that will make you

(00:43):
feel good about your progress instead of constantly feeling behind.
Because real success isn't about reaching some arbitrary finish line.
It's about the journey, baby, It's about learning, growing and
celebrating those small victories along the way. So buckle up,
get ready to take some notes, and let's dive into

(01:05):
this together. Here are five key takeaways that will help
you set realistic goals and expectations for success. First things first,
identify your values. What truly matters to you? Is it family, creativity,
financial freedom, helping others, your goals should align with these

(01:26):
core values. Think of it like building a house. You
wouldn't build the foundation on sand. Right. The same goes
for your goals. They need a solid base in what's
important to you. Second, break down big dreams into smaller steps.
Overwhelm by that huge goal, don't be chunk it down

(01:47):
into manageable pieces. Imagine trying to climb mald Everest without
any breaks or planning. Not gonna happen. Right, Same with
your goals. Break them down into smaller, achievable milestones. Every
step you take gets you closer to the summit. Third,
celebrate those small winds. Don't wait until you've reached the

(02:09):
big goal to pat yourself on the back. Recognize and
celebrate each milestone along the way. It keeps you motivated,
reinforces positive momentum, and makes the journey more enjoyable. Trust me,
a little self love goes a long way. Forth, Be
flexible and adapt as needed. Life happens, unexpected challenges arise,

(02:34):
priorities shift, that's okay. Don't be afraid to adjust your
goals and timelines as you go. It doesn't mean you're failing.
It means you're adapting and growing. Remember the most important
thing is progress, not perfection. Finally, practice self compassion. Be

(02:55):
kind to yourself, especially when things don't go according to plan.
We all stumble, we all have setbacks. It's how we
handle them that matters. Learn from your mistakes, dust yourself off,
and keep moving forward. You've got this now. Let me
paint you a picture. Imagine Sarah, a friend who wants

(03:15):
to start running marathons. She gets caught up in the hype,
sets an unrealistic goal of completing one in just three months,
without any training or experience. She ends up frustrated, injured,
and demotivated. See where I'm going with this. Instead, if
Sarah had broken down her marathon goal into smaller steps,

(03:37):
maybe starting with a five k then building up to
a half marathon, she'd have felt more confident and accomplished
along the way. She would have celebrated each milestone, learn
from any setbacks, and ultimately increased her chances of success.
So remember, setting realistic goals isn't about lowering your aspirations.

(03:59):
It it's about setting yourself up for genuine success and fulfillment.
Don't get caught in that trap of unrealistic expectations. In
constant comparison. Focus on what truly matters to you. Break
down those big dreams into manageable steps, celebrate every win
along the way, and be kind to yourself through the process.

(04:24):
Remember you are capable of achieving amazing things, but it's
about taking one step at a time, celebrating each victory
and embracing the journey. You've got this now. I want
to hear from you. What's one realistic goal you can
