Description

Setting goals is easy for high achievers. 

The challenge lies in achieving them—on your ideal timeline—without burning out. 

In this episode, I explore the pitfalls of setting ambitious targets without proper planning and how this can lead to burnout and panic-driven decisions, especially as deadlines approach.

Drawing from experiences with my K to R Essentials students, I dive into the importance of being intentional with your goals, understanding your long-term vision (your North Star), and avoiding the trap of "magical thinking." 

Tune in to this episode of the podcast to discover:

• The dangers of relying solely on tenacity instead of proper preparation
• How to set realistic target deadlines and avoid panic as they approach
• The value of a long-range view in career planning and prioritization

This stage in your career is the perfect time to see the need to create a practical plan, prioritize effectively, and recognize the difference between setting a goal and making a plan to achieve it.
