#8. The Challenge Is The Goal
Manage episode 404655364 series 3553555
In this episode, "Knocking Down Goals: Turning Them Into Processes," I elaborate on the concept of setting and reaching business goals by using the analogy of his experience with endurance running.
The journey is about more than just the end objective. It's about pushing hard to the point of questioning your capabilities and then pushing even more.
To demonstrate this, I use my training for an intense trail race, Relaps. I questioned my fitness level, whether I was prepared enough, and whether it would be safe. The problem expands as I dwell on two scenarios: Should he prepare for a specific 50K goal? Or should I push his limits and see how far I can go beyond 50K?
I discuss how goal setting isn't simply about aiming for the finish line but more about each smaller goal leading us steadily towards our ultimate objective. I show how my training, prepping for each lap and psyching myself for the rigorous journey ahead, is as significant as completing the goal. '
This thought-provoking perspective delves into how we might be setting our goals incorrectly, and offers a fresh approach towards achieving our ambitions, whatever they may be.
