On a return trip to San Diego, I stop in Orange County for breakfast with a great friend – a super friend – who happens to be a championship-winning, professional collegiate rugby coach.
Surprisingly, he starts to ping me about setting big goals for himself and, more importantly, about how he can stick to them!
----
I tell him that the very best way I know (from experience), to stay on track and move toward my biggest goals is to simply track the key, supportive habits that will drive the goal’s attainment.
He knows this, by the way.
It’s likely that we ALL know this.
That is, if it’s important to you, you’d better be tracking.
“To know, and not to do, is not to know.” ~Confucius
Habit tracking is not optional and some methods are better than others ; )
Here’s the “right way.”
---
The first part to ACHIEVING ANY BIG GOAL is to commit!
This presumes you are clear and do know what your BIG GOAL is!
Such a commitment creates the requisite PRESSURE.
Establish a deadline.
Pay an entry fee.
Establish some real consequences for not following through, etc.
Once you are committed, THEN it’s time to begin tracking the core, recurring behaviors (habits) that will bring you closer to the goal.
That is step two.
TRACK the core, habits that will drive the goal’s attainment.
THAT IS HOW YOU STAY ON TRACK.
One simply must track to stay on track.
That is it. Simple and powerful but not necessarily easy.
You got this!
Enjoy the show!
