Deep dives
Set One Priority Goal
To achieve any goal, start by setting one priority goal. Narrow down your list of goals to focus on just one. This helps to avoid fragmented focus, which is a common reason why people fail to achieve their goals. Take your time to consider different options and write them down. Then, evaluate each potential goal based on how much it would improve your life. Choose the one big goal that would have the greatest impact and make it your priority focus.
Define Your Process
After setting your priority goal, define the process needed to achieve it. Identify the one to three most important actions you can take daily to make progress towards your goal. This aligns with the 80-20 rule, as most actions are not as impactful. For example, if your goal is to become a successful copywriter, your process may include activities like pitching to 10 different businesses, analyzing one great ad daily, and writing 100 words of new copy each day. Focus on these key actions to save time and achieve your goals faster.
Most people set goals. Most people don't achieve their goals.

What did I do?
I started following the 5 step-system I outline inside this podcast. Ever since, I've levelled up each and every year and I'm confident you'll do the same if you apply this.
So, give it a quick listen, take notes, and do the exercises.
Then get busy living and 365 days from now...
You'll be living out your goal.
