Description

This series, I'm sharing insights from my book Work/Life Flywheel.

In this episode, I discuss how combining different techniques will help you with your goal-setting and attainment.

Chapter Summary:

• Materialising your goals - seeing them as real-life things - increases your chances of meeting and exceeding them.
• Fixing your attention on a single point contracts your perception of distance, inducing a visual illusion that it’s nearer.
• The secret to maximising your chances of success is pairing positive visualisation with ‘foreshadowing failure’.
• Being specific about how you’ll judge success in advance avoids being tricked by your unreliable memory.
• Setting objective milestones ensures you’re always heading towards your ‘north star.’
• Aiming high and having people to help hold us accountable, pushes us to reach our potential.
