What is going on everybody? Welcome back to the mind of a Macros podcast as always.

I am your host Mike Milner and I'm going to be diving in to my wheelhouse.

My wheelhouse is all about the art and science

of goal achievement.

And it is something that I'm incredibly passionate about and I'm going to go

as far to say as I am the world's leading expert on goal achievement according to

myself. I think that that's how it works. Anytime you hear that there's like the world's leading expert on X, Y, Z, according to who, I feel like most of the time it's just somebody decided that they wanted to be titled that person like I want to be the world's leading expert on sleep or on

whatever metabolism and then they just crown themselves.

So I'm just gonna crown myself the world's leading expert on goal achievement.

Now I actually have been extensively studying the art and science while implementing and

practicing the art and science of goal achievement.

And I feel quite confident in understanding the ins and outs and how it's so complicated and why so few of us

actually achieve our goals. The statistics are not pretty. You are basically, anytime you set a goal, you're basically in the single digit percentage

of likelihood of achieving it, which sucks. But that's reality.

Doesn't make you a bad person, it makes you a human.

And when we understand the psychology behind it,

it makes so much sense, and it makes you not feel so bad it is almost like this weight is lifted off your shoulder in my

experience it's like oh yeah of course like you stop kicking yourself

for self-sabotage and beating yourself up when you make poor decisions

you're like, oh actually that makes perfect sense as to why I made that decision

even though it moved me further away from my goal,

I understand it. I understand why I did it and I can forgive myself and I can get curious about how to not make that same mistake in the future.
