Summary

Welcome back to the Hello Monday Master Class! We've distilled the essence of hundreds of conversations into five essential rules that will empower you to thrive in an ever-changing professional landscape. Welcome to our final week! This week, we’ll take a look at the role of time - and even more importantly, at the role of long term thinking - in achieving our biggest and sometimes scariest goals. In this episode, we learn from Dorie Clark. Dorie is widely known as an author, a speaker, and a professor. She’s a powerful business thinker, and she’s currently pursuing a totally new dream. Dorie’s writing a musical she hopes will land on Broadway and to do this, she's is putting her own advice into practice. She has set a goal for herself on a ten-year timeline. She’s a little more than halfway through that decade right now, and she has a lot to teach us about how to make big strides on a long time-horizon. There’s no wishful thinking here; instead, Dorie teaches us how to make big swings seem like practical and achievable ambitions. For this week’s exercise, we’re leaning into our biggest and most ambitious dreams. What’s something you want to achieve that seems worth ten years of your attention and hard work? You’ll know you’re on the right track if you feel vaguely terrified. When you’ve got it, head over to our free Hello Monday group on LinkedIn and share that big goal on our week five post. For a little help in finding your week five goal, here is a link to our Dream Job exercise. Dorie has appeared on Hello Monday a few times - you can check out her previous episodes here and here. To get the rest of the Hello Monday Master Class delivered right to your inbox, subscribe to our free newsletter. If you’ve enjoyed this series - and we really hope you have - please do two things for us: first, rate and review us wherever you’ve been listening! Second, take a few minutes to tell us more about how Hello Monday can serve you. We’re asking for your attention every week, and we want to deliver episodes that matter to you.

A lot of the busyness that we all face is self-imposed. It's chosen in some ways because for many of us there are things

0:15.2

we don't really want to face, uncomfortable questions about whether we are doing

0:19.2

the right thing or just not knowing what the right thing is to do,

and it's a lot easier to just keep doing what you're already doing,

rather than take the time to dig into that and interrogate it.

That's my friend Dory Clark. She's describing a sort of

0:36.7

fundamental state of our always on hyper-connected existence. We can always be

0:42.1

doing something. We can always make ourselves so busy that we don't

0:46.1

have time to even consider, let alone plan for really big goals. But when that's the case, what do we really accomplish? Our busyness becomes a sort of

0:57.5

defense. It keeps us from realizing what's truly possible for any of us.

1:04.5

Most of the things that are going to matter to us in this life will not come as a result of

1:08.4

being busy, of filling our days with tasks, our most significant accomplishments.

1:14.4

Well, they'll take thought and planning,

1:17.1

patience, foresight.

So today, let's consider what it means to think long term.
