Episode description

In this episode, I explore what could happen if you were braver and challenged your own thinking, in terms of what could be possible for you and by when. 

Setting a 5 year vision for your business is important, but what is stopping you from achieving in 3 months, what you are stating will be done in 5 years….Are there real factors that prevent you achieving that outcome sooner, or are you simply kicking the can down the road, because of limiting beliefs, around what you are capable of achieving much sooner?

Key Takeaways

In setting our goals, it’s important to set it to short term goals, medium term goals and longer term goals. Then we start off from the perspective of what is our longer term goal, and reverse engineer all our other goals based on that longer term goal.

In setting longer term goals ask yourself; Am I really committed to achieving that goal? Am I really committed to taking all the steps, the intentional action that I need to take in order to achieve that goal?

When we really lean in to the art of the possible and go and seek the evidence, then that is where we start to realise that our limiting beliefs hold us back. Because if we go and look for who has achieved what it is we want to achieve, then under most circumstances, we will always find somebody who has achieved the very thing that we want to achieve. And very often, in a much shorter timeframe than we have believed is possible for us.

We make decisions all the time. When we make no decision, we are actually making a limiting decision, a decision to do nothing. And that in itself is a decision.

Writing down your goals is the easiest and best way to connect with them. It is setting out that intention to do and achieve what you've committed to paper. And by then you can start breaking it down into those milestones, into those action steps you need to take in order to achieve that goal.

Our limiting beliefs are like our relationship with money. It's never ever going to be one and done. But if we keep pushing through and creating the facts and the evidence that we can do what we set out to do, there'll be learning along the way. Take each lesson as one step closer to progress, one step closer to getting what we want. 

Consider a goal that you think is out of reach at the moment is something that you will look to achieve in five years time. What if you could achieve it in 90 days? What would you need to do? How would you do it? Who do you need to become and then work through that and start that with one small step one small step of intentional action.
