Listen "š“ 202. Set a goal that scares you"
Episode Synopsis
This episode was sparked by a great comment I got on LinkedIn from Sally Portus (hi Sally!), asking: How do you consistently prioritize things like training for a hikeāoutside of just āputting it in your calendarā?So today, Iām sharing how I approach consistencyānot with rigid discipline, but with a very healthy dose of fear.š§āāļø Iāve got a goal that genuinely scares me: Trekking to Everest Base Camp and Lobuche Peak in November. Iām terrified of not making it⦠and that fear is a brilliant motivator.Inside this ep, I unpack:Why I swapped my Sunday hike for a Friday one (hello, ultra-marathoners!)How Iāve built a business that supports asynchronous work and flexibilityWhy having a coach removes decision fatigue (and adds accountability)The surprising power of tiny digital dopamine hits (hello, green dots on my app!)How outsourcing trust helps me just follow the program without overthinkingI also reflect on why health is non-negotiableāand why Iām willing to trade three hours of work time for three hours of hiking with a weighted vest.šÆ My takeaway? Set a goal thatās just scary enough to pull you forward. (And if you canāt trust yourself to stay consistentāhire someone to help.)Now Iām curiousāwhat gets you moving consistently? Is it a big goal? A daily reward? A vibe? Let me know.
