Hey, you and I, we tend to settle and set the wrong goals. We're going to talk about that. Overworking is not leading to more

production and then if you're dyslexing you have a huge advantage in the workplace.

We'll unpack it next. Welcome to the Ken Coleman Show helping you win at work, helping you win in your

leadership, helping you win in the contribution that you want to make in the world of work that means

more money more meaning all right so let's get to this you and I we set the

wrong kind of goals wrong kind of goals.

What does that mean?

Do you know the nickname people have for the second Friday in January?

I didn't know this until recently. It's called Quitter's Day.

In a world of quiet quitting, this is probably a national holiday and it's

completely new to me. It's the day that people are most likely to give up on their New Year's resolutions, thus the term quitting day.

Now the research shows us that 91% of Americans who make a New Year's resolution won't be successful in keeping them.

And you've probably seen things written on this before, so maybe this is going to be a reminder,

maybe a challenge, I hope it is. There's a lot of theories about why but I want to give you my take

I think most resolutions around the New Year's nothing more than a goal, but they fail because people make that

resolution set that goal from a place of pain.

When people are prompted to think of goals for the new year,

their minds immediately go to,

where does my life suck?

In other words, I'm looking at pain points and that's a that's a completely natural

Instinct for example. I'll have some fun with this one because this is from my past. Now Alex you don't know this I have to pull up some pictures

but about 15 years ago I was 35 pounds heavier than I am right now. I was right at 200 pounds so I'm a little guy.
