If You Hate Setting Goals, Do This Instead

Talking points: new year, goals, mindset

Goals don’t always work, especially when the end result requires a more flexible approach, like having a healthier internal dialogue or more intimacy in your relationship. This week, let’s dig into a different approach: non-linear goal setting.

(00:00:00) - Why step-by-step goals may not work, and how to have an aim

(00:06:07) - Let go of the idea that paint-by-numbers is always the way to go, and embrace experimentation

(00:10:424) - Learn how to read the data from your own body

(00:15:16) - Be honest about what is and isn’t working, and pay attention to the unforeseen

(00:19:50) - Maintain your connection to your aim energetically
