Goal setting is the least important part of the process.

A lot of folks spend more time on goal setting than they do on prioritizing goal achievement.

Hey everybody, welcome back to the Primal Potential Podcast.

I am Elizabeth Benton. This is our consistency 365 series. These are many episodes that air between

our full length Monday and Saturday episodes so that we all build the habit of carving out a few minutes of every single day to identify

ways that we can move the needle on this day.

Not waiting for the perfect set of circumstances, not waiting until we can

execute a full blown plan, but something that we are able and willing to do today having that mindset every day no matter

what is going on. I see this a lot. People get really jazzed up about goal

setting and they want to make sure that they're setting the right goal in the right way and that they have everything

planned out and that process feels good. It feels like you've done something

productive but the reality is where the needle moves is not in the goal setting.

It's not only in the goal achievement more specifically. It's in the prioritization of goal achievement

So it's not enough that we set great goals and it's not enough that we keep our eye on achieving

the goal, we have to prioritize everyday goal achievement.

That's why every time you hear one of these consistency 365 episodes, you're hearing me talk about

the fact that the habit we need to build is seeking and seizing opportunities every day to make a difference, to move the needle, to do something

even if it's a little something instead of continuing to be on again, off

again or doing the work when we're in the mood or when we're

frustrated enough to get serious or when life seems to provide us the

bandwidth we think we need prioritizing goal achievement every day.

Asking yourself a question like what is one thing that I can and will do today
