“When you have a new year, people tend to be hopeful. You’re going to want to launch your vision again. You want your people to know the flag they’re still moving towards to get them energized.”

SHOW NOTES
January is around the corner, and it's time to set goals and plan for the new year. Even with the busyness of December, a leader needs to carve out time for deep work.
This episode is about setting goals for the new year and being able to communicate those goals.
I share quotes and goal setting wisdom from Dan Miller and his goal setting worksheet. Once you have all of your goals, I share the process by James Clear to ruthlessly eliminate unnecessary goals.
Episode Highlights:
[05:46] People with clear plans and goals don't get depressed. Moving towards the goals we set is how we define success.
[07:19] When we set goals, we need to be fired up about those goals. Set three year goals and work backwards.
[11:13] Go big with your goals and then ruthlessly eliminate the unnecessary ones. Having too many goals will prevent us from achieving the important ones.
[11:39] James Clear says the goal tells you where to go and the habit gets you there.
[14:02] Priority mechanisms include the Eisenhower box and the Ivy Lee method.
