Ep 53: What Goals are Still Unmet?

It’s been well over a year since we first talked about unmet goals and we thought it would be a great time to revisit this topic. If you’ve already listened to Episode 6, this is your chance to revisit this topic with fresh ears. If you haven’t… let’s dig in!

Takeaways

1. Unmet goals get heavier and heavier the longer you carry them around.
2. An unmet goal can be a barrier (or an excuse) to achieving other goals
3. Sometimes, it’s wiser to let a goal go than to continue to pay the “interest”

1. Think about a goal or ambition that’s been on your “to achieve” list for a while.
2. Take a moment to think (compassionately) about how much emotional capital you’re spending on that unmet goal.
3. Think about anything you’ve been putting off because this particular goal is still unmet.
4. Decide right now to either officially table that goal for now OR commit to taking concrete action this week.
