My perception of goals have changed over the years.

Like, I've been able to accomplish a lot of things.

And my belief now in hindsight, looking back at it, is not because I set big, crazy, rigid

goals, but because I was always willing to be flexible and pivot and adapt and, like, abandon

a goal.

Oh, yeah.

So how is that supposed to work?

Yeah, I mean, I think you can hold on to something too long. I mean,

you see businesses go out of business all the time because they were unwilling to make a change.

Rigid goals are fragile goals. And so a sign that you have a flexible goal is if you are able to

do something the day after perfect. So every goal has the day after perfect where you went to the gym

three weeks in a row

and then you miss one day. And there's a lot of people who they missed the one day and it turns into

three months. So giving yourself the grace to pick it back up. All resilience is, the definition of

resilience is being willing to give yourself the ability to start again, like to start again, to start again.

You wouldn't need resilience if you were perfect. You only need resilience when it hasn't worked. So a good sign of a flexible

goal is I didn't meet it perfectly. I'm still doing it. A good sign of a rigid,

of a flexible goal is when you give yourself a margin of error. So for instance, one of my goals

this year is to spend a thousand hours outside. There's this woman who did this program.

I've seen that.

It's killing, dude.

And so I just decided to try it.
