Do you have a dream that feels just slightly out of reach; just a little too impossible? Well, today is for you because it's all about setting big goals and finding the right pathways to achieving them. We begin with the definition of “big goals” before exploring why it's vital for human growth and development to always shoot for the stars. Then, we unpack Caroline Adams Miller's summation of Dr. Edwin A. Locke's Goal Setting Theory as found in her latest book, Big Goals, why you need to be surrounded by people who support you while also holding yourself accountable, how to build the necessary grit and resilience to help you persevere, and the undeniable power of consistency. We end by examining the motivations behind your goals and the importance of understanding your “why”, and it's always helpful to remember the people in your life who may be affected by your actions and decisions.

As the clock winds down for another year, now is the perfect time to think about what you hope to achieve in 2025. But are the goals we set for ourselves big enough and perhaps more importantly, are they the right goals? Today we pose these questions to the eight-time bestselling author, international speaker, and world-renowned expert in positive psychology, Caroline Adams Miller. Caroline's work is focused on setting big goals for yourself and finding the grit and determination to achieve them, and she begins today's conversation by sharing details of her latest book, Big Goals – a manual that reveals the science behind the power of Dr. Edwin A. Locke's Goal Setting Theory. Caroline defines “big goals” and how they differ from others before explaining how setting big goals can change a person for the better. We discuss the modern trend of trying to eliminate all stress from our lives and how that has bred a timid generation, helpful tips and tools from the world of applied positive psychology, how learning goals and performance goals manifest in real life, and the roles of happiness and accountability in achieving everything you set out to do. We end with the reminder that hard work often leads to satisfaction and that through healthy competition, we are able to develop resilience, determination, and grit.

Caroline Miller with Tyler Technology and James Collins with Microsoft talk about regulatory modernization, highlighting the difference between a refresh or update and a transformation. They advise to avoid recreating the old system in the new system but instead adopt the new system from the consumer/public's perspective. They talk about the need for government to move to delivery of services as an enterprise rather than individual agencies. Challenges and tips they offer include setting a vision of where you are, where you want to be, and the case for why you want to get there; defining requirements of your new system and determining if it's a technology need or a change in process need; employing change management skills and patience for adult learners who need to unlearn before they can learn new skills; planning in resources to augment your team so you can focus on this large project; and having a good communication plan and common nomenclature between the agency and the technology vendor.

We defined happiness and I learned the happiest people are the people who wake up to hard goals – people who have “ikigai”, a Japanese word that means “reason for being”.

I'm Caroline Miller.Both Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and current President Donald Trump hosted their campaign events last week in Michigan for the upcoming election this year.Former Vice President Biden announced his 'Made in America' plans and denounced Trump's handling of the COVID-19 outbreak during his speech Wednesday in Warren, Michigan.Trump's speech, which spanned for almost two hours, had everything from calling Democratic presidential candidate "Sleepy Joe," touting his impact on the state's auto manufacturing industry and imploring Governor Gretchen Whitmer to let the Big Ten play football this fall.The East Lansing Police Department is hiring two full-time police social workers to work in the department. It's part of a realignment plan submitted by the City Manager that is helping the department better understand its goals.The positions were created with the intent of providing crisis intervention, conflict resolution, short-term counseling and community outreach to the East Lansing community.This past week, graduate employees and others at the University of Michigan have been on strike in response to the university's decision to continue some in-person instruction this fall.Similar concerns stretched to other universities including Michigan State, where graduate students called for MSU to go fully online for lack of consideration or consultation of graduate employees in the reopening decisions, prior to the university's official shift to a remote fall semester.Thank you for joining us for "The State", produced by The State News and Impact 89FM.

In this episode I talk to Caroline Miller. Caroline started her own very successful company because she wanted to work somewhere that would enable her live a life rather than live her work. We talk about women in work, about travelling as a kid who failed her exams, about how working class people are not the scruffy wretches demonised by the press. 

Also Fortnite. Yes, the game of the year. Find out why.

Caroline Miller is one of the world’s leading experts on the science of goal setting and grit. She’s spent more than 30 years helping individuals, leaders and companies to cultivate grit to achieve their goals and find personal and professional success. Caroline is the author of six books, including Getting Grit and Creating Your Best Life. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, BBC and CNN. During our chat we discussed the two kinds of goals – learning goals and performance goals – and how grit helped Caroline overcome bulimia at the age of 22. We talked about the value of humility, hope and optimism. We defined happiness and I learned the happiest people are the people who wake up to hard goals – people who have “ikigai”, a Japanese word that means “reason for being”. I was delighted to hear that only half of grit and happiness are hard-wired – the rest we can develop. Caroline mentioned “job-crafting”, a way to find your purpose in whatever role you have. We also got into women bullying other women, and how important it is that women support each other through “active constructive responding” and push each other forward. At the end of the episode, Caroline makes specific recommendations to build your tribe and help others thrive: for example, find two women you know and share their success stories on two social media platforms #share222; or list 5-6 people you know who are givers and set up a monthly meeting to share goals and hold each other accountable to them (in a kind way!)

For three decades, Caroline Miller has been a pioneer with her groundbreaking work in the areas of goal setting, grit, happiness and success. She is recognized as one of the world’s leading positive psychology experts on this research and how it can be applied to one’s life for maximum transformation and growth.

She is a best-selling author of six books, including a Creating Your Best Life, the first mass market self-help book on the science of happiness and how it intersects with the science of accomplishing goals.   Her work has been featured in hundreds of worldwide media outlets, including BBC World News, The New York Times, The Washington Post, NBC, NPR and CNN.   In this episode, Caroline and I talk about: - The risk of seeking happiness from extrinsic achievements, and how true happiness and success can be born out of failure. - Why hope is key to a healthy mindset, and how to inspire hope in others - The influence of language - The difference between authentic grit and 3 types of “bad” grit - How to identify and cultivate your passions   I hope that you enjoy this interview, and it offers you inspiration to find or pursue your passion…and then, give it away.     Meet somebody’s eyes today. Maybe, a stranger’s. Let yourself feel connected, letting any pretense fall away. As Caroline says, We can’t keep what we don’t give away – what can you offer to someone else?   And, if you, like I was just last September, feel the call to follow a passion, to stand up for something, to do the thing, ask yourself – why not? Write those reasons down. Let them out of your system. Stare them down, give them a good look. Notice if they’re really aligned with reality. Those words, once captured on paper, may just point you to more reasons why you should.   I deeply appreciate all of the reviews and shares that this podcast is getting and I would love your help in spreading these tools to more people – as always, please send along to anyone in your life who would resonate with the content I cover with my guests – AND – let me know what you think by leaving a review within iTunes or your Podcasts app on your iPhone.   Happy to report that this show is also LIVE on Spotify now – more places to tune in!

My guest is this episode is Caroline Miller. Author of Getting Grit (2017) For almost three decades has been a pioneer with her ground-breaking work in the areas of goal setting, accomplishment, grit, happiness and success.   She is recognized as one of the world’s leading positive psychology experts on this research and how it can be applied to one’s life for maximum transformation and growth. In 2015 she was named “one of the ten positive psychology coaches to follow.” Caroline thinks we need a grit revolution. A change in our recognition and cultural reward system where effort is venerated over talent and people do their best every day regardless of how hard it is and we are all part of other people also being their best.  How important is grit? Caroline has written on the use of the twelve-item Grit Scale and found it to be the leading predictor of who drops out at West Point during the first summer, known as “Beast Barracks.” It had also worked with preteens, determining who would be in the finals of the National Spelling Bee. Grit is considered a key ingredients of high achievement. We live in an exciting but challenging times. Disruptive economic conditions, geopolitical strife and now every negative event around the globe is piped into our homes via television and the internet. Add to this the natural vicissitudes of life itself. As I’m writing this we are rebuilding our fences, screens and cleaning up after a direct hit by hurricane Irma and Houston just went through much worse with Harvey.  Without grit, we can be handicapped by discouragement, fear, inertia and habituated comfort. At various points, big and small, we get knocked down. If we stay down, grit loses. If we get up, grit prevails – Angela Duckworth, Grit If you’ve been knocked down … you’ll need some grit to get up and try again.  The value of hard things  Caroline has done a great deal of research on what really makes people happy. A lot of that data points toward the imperative of doing difficult things in order to live a satisfying, high-quality life filled with achievement. If you do nothing hard at the end of the day the research shows, you feel mediocre about yourself because you know you went for a low hanging fruit. – Caroline Miller Research she has done in Goal Setting Theory, holds that “challenging and specific” goals are required if someone wants to attain the highest levels of performance. Easy goals, don’t just result in mediocrity, she says, but also leave people feeling mediocre. You aren’t happy doing nothing. You are driven to master environments in order to feel related, autonomous and competent. Self efficacy theory is the belief you can do hard things and she says there ways to build that belief. One is just by having small mastery experiences, challenge yourself by doing successively hard things; like parking farther away from the store, taking a cold shower or getting up earlier, mowing your own lawn. Exercise your grit muscle. Easy choices, hard life. Hard choices, easy life –  Jerzy Gregorik, Olympic weightlifter Caroline is  like a cross between Tony Robbins and Sheryl Sandberg. She’s motivational, incredibly articulate and footnotes her sentences with research and scientific articles incredibly articulate. Her passion for the topic and her zest is contagious. In this interview, we cover a lot, including: Defining grit, the various types and how they differ The research on purpose and goal setting How to develop grit and the science behind it Her story and how she overcame eating disorder The importance of hope – what it really is How the nation is promoting mediocrity in many arenas The research on how we can build strengths How to cultivate grit in ourselves How we can teach our children to be gritty – she has some strong opinions here How mantras and mottos can change your life Listen up, take notes, if you don’t already follow Caroline, I think you’ll be a fan.
