You’re setting goals the wrong way. Try this instead
🤓 Set goals that are S.M.A.R.T (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound)
✅Break it down - Figure out a single goal for one year. Then figure out what's ONE thing you have to do this month, so that getting to that 1-year goal is way easier. Then figure out what's ONE thing you have to do this week, so that getting to that 1-month goal is way easier
👉🏽Clarify ownership - Every task—and even every subtask—must have one single designated owner. If multiple people own a task, effectively no one does. Because no one’s directly accountable for its success or failure
🥇Prioritize - If everything is considered a high priority, nothing is. Not everything is important or urgent, so get real with yourself and your team about what needs to be done in what order
⏱️Deadlines - Always set definitive deadlines and commit to them. Otherwise, I promise that things will linger in the background and fall through cracks
✔️Check ins - People love to complain about meetings, especially when they have a lot on their plates. But I’ve found that the busier everyone is, the more important it is to have brief weekly check-in calls. This practice keeps everyone in the loop about rapidly evolving or fluid situations. Most importantly, it holds everyone accountable—nobody wants to be the person who didn’t get their shit done.
