About this episode

If you’re a list-maker, you know there’s nothing like checking items off when complete. In fact, a rush of endorphins floods your brain! The neurotransmitter dopamine produces satisfaction and happiness, making you feel accomplished and propelling you to get even more done.

 

But first, you have to actually create that to-do list, which, for some people, can feel like a massive undertaking. After all, making a list (which is really a form of setting goals) requires thinking through many elements, including the following:

  • Deciding what needs to be done
  • Determining how to prioritize
  • Forcing ourselves to be very specific
  • Breaking jobs/activities down into smaller steps
  • Scheduling times to check our progress
  • Holding ourselves accountable
  • Knowing when to say no

 

If you’re feeling overwhelmed after listening to what I just said, you’re not alone! In actuality, science tells us that only 8% of people meet their goals. That means 92% of people don’t. Those are some pretty dismal statistics, but I have hope to offer you. My objective is to help you understand the power of goal setting and why it’s a critical habit for you and your career.
