Summary

#954: In our last show of 2021 Tom Ziglar and I take to task, goals. It’s time for New Year’s resolutions and goal setting for all the aspiring people of the world. Truth is, the idea of setting goals is a downer for many. It comes with guilt and doubt, and at the root is…what drives us. Or not. Our motive. My intent is to free you from some goals, and amp your motive for others. Naming a goal you have or a problem you want to solve is a beginning. It’s a map in front of you. But the journey is getting into something that will actually transport you there. This is your motive. Do you really want to achieve the goal? Why? What does arriving at it look like? Is it really that important to you? Conversely, what if you don’t make it? Is that ok? If so, maybe it’s not necessary. Are you driven by desire? Or is the better, more true motive, pain and fear? Some of my goals are driven by what I deem a healthy fear. The point is knowing why you have a goal and what is actually driving you and discerning which goals really matter and which you can be free of. If you want to join like minded people and get feedback and support on working out this topic I invite you to join our community of people devoted to making positive change in their life and work, come over to kevinmiller.co and join my Driven To Live Community.

world. And truth is, the idea of setting goals is actually a downer for a lot of people. It comes

0:18.1

with guilt and doubt and at the root is what drives us or not. And it's our motive. And my intent is

0:25.1

to free you from some goals completely and amp your motive for others. Naming a goal you have

0:32.6

or a problem you want to solve is a beginning. It's a map in front of you. But the journey is

0:37.2

getting into something that actually will transport you there. And this is your motive. I mean,

0:42.7

do you really want to achieve whatever the goal is that you've set down here? Why? What does arriving

0:49.3

at it look like? Is it really that important to you? And conversely, what if you don't make it?

0:53.8

Is that okay? Because if it is, maybe it's not necessary. Are you driven by desire? Or is

0:59.6

the better, more true motive pain and fear? Some of my goals are driven by what I feel like is

1:05.1

healthy fear. The point is knowing why you have a goal and what is actually driving you into

starting which goals really matter and which you can be free of.
