Deadlines And Judgments
Episode description
After agreeing to a major life transition, Rob has been taking some time to reflect on the importance of focus and mindset.
Mental and physical preparation are key to any new phase in life, and with this in mind, Rob talks to you this week on the subjects of goals and deadlines; how to set them and how to achieve them. But more importantly, how does time affect the goals we set? Do we achieve more if we have less time?
Join the conversation for Rob's unique perspective on these questions, as well as practical advice on how to achieve your goals, and an important lesson in judging others before you know the whole story.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Deadlines force you to work harder. They force you to focus more acutely. There are undoubtedly things in your own life that need to be achieved before you can get to where you'd like to be.
- We often underestimate the things we can do. Tasks we never thought possible can often be accomplished if we have the focus to give them, and push ourselves a little harder.
- Picking out the key goals in our lives that require attention, even if it's a phone call we aren't looking forward to making, and then actioning them will not only give you a huge sense of achievement, but also relief at having it out of the way.
- There are long term benefits of playing the long game. Set yourself a set of standards and stick to them in the long term, because foundations create fundamentals that ensure success.
- Set realistic expectations. If you're a coach, parent or teacher, remember that we have no idea what's going on in the mind of those in our care.
- Opinions of people are so often based on face value. Everyone has a story and circumstances that we know nothing about. How would we feel if we knew those stories before we formed our opinions?
