We're starting a new tradition here at Managed Tools of releasing our settings goals cast over the Christmas break.

Many people take the quiet time around the holidays to think about the coming year and they set personal, professional and business goals.

To support you in that we're releasing three goals over the break.

You might want to go back to the previous two weeks if you haven't listened to them, and

there you'll find how to set annual goals, the first of the three cast, and Manchu Tools

Goals examples, which is the second cast we did on this topic. If you do that

before we listen to this cast, you'll probably have a better experience.

So even after we gave example goals in the second cast, some managers asked,

how can I set a goal that's bigger than what I'm already doing when this year was so hard. How can I find more

revenue when I barely made it last year? How can I cut costs when I feel like I'm already down to the

bone? And this cast will answer those questions and give you three ways to think about your

goals which will allow you to stretch your horizons even more. Again, because this is a real release,

after this you're going to hear me again, introduce the cast. So everyone, I hope

you found last two helpful and I hope you find this one helpful as well. Happy holidays.

Today's topic, Assumptive Goal Setting.

Here we go. Now surely we've spent some time talking about the importance of goals in the past

right?

But it's really funny how many people don't want to have to set goals,
