Today, we’re going to talk about the best way to actually hit your goals (even when times are difficult). The answer is getting your process down -- a process that you love.Here are the questions I ask during the exercise:Question Set #1 (5 minutes): What is the one thing you hope to accomplish in the next three months? And if you’re listening to this during a dark time, what do you hope to accomplish by the end of your "tunnel"? What would absolutely excite you if you achieved it?Question Set #2 (7 minutes): What’s something that has held you back in the past from achieving those goals? If you don’t know, then what are some things you foresee holding you back?Question #3 (30 minutes): What’s your dream schedule that will get you there?
