Before I let you in the secret as to why you are not reaching your goals I want to first look at what makes a “great” goal!
Great goals are:
– Outcome focused. Once your WHY is understood (AND it’s a good & enthusiastic WHY) you’re 90{9426e48ae5c3b3ab02332dd167966d9e9ea7aa41d6d2b8540a0550b4f9308632} there! This piece alone is key to reaching the goals
– In line with your values. The more a goal aligns with your core values – the EASIER it will be to achieve. Note: You can achieve goals that don’t align with your values but it’s usually harder and less satisfying.
– Stated in the positive. ie. “I want to earn $5000 in additional income this month” rather than “I want to stop bleeding money out of my biz”
and SMART:
Specific (so you know exactly what you are trying to achieve)
Measurable (so you know when you have achieved it!)
Action-oriented (so you can DO something about it!)
Realistic (so it IS achievable) and
Time-Bound (has a deadline)
Okay, cool, so you get all that, and you may have even heard of the above or similar, now I want to tell you why it’s not working for you or at least why it wasn’t working for me and the clients I serve.
So stick with me, you set a goal, based on the above, maybe $5k in income in the next 30 days but for some reason, you just can’t reach that goal, or maybe sometimes you do but it’s not consistent and you just can’t put your finger on it.
You start to question yourself, your skills, your abilities, what is this all for, you want to throw in the towel, this is just too damn hard.
I get it because I have been there done that, I have set so many goals and not reached them, that is until I figured out this other piece, the missing link.
So, if you are like me, awake and aware you have likely struggled with the traditional goal setting because it just does not address this piece.
Let me clue you in, first, there is nothing wrong with you which is the great news and it’s totally fixable. Actually, I address this in great detail in my digital product on goal setting and strategic planning, Rock Your Goals + for a limited time you can sign up for my master class here!
Okay, back to the problem, so the problem is that when you set goals you need to look at what is really in the way of you achieving your goals, plus you also need to make sure that the goals you set are in alignment with what you really want, your purpose, the deep desire you have hidden inside of you.
You see, a lot of times we create goals out of fear, of wanting something to stop, like I want to stop bleeding money out of my biz and I just want this darn problem to go away. The problem with that is two-fold, the goal is not in alignment and you are setting yourself up to fail.
You see, not only do you need to bridge the gap with a strategy to get where you want to go but you need the secret hidden piece to be addressed as well, the energy behind it.
Again, I go into great detail in my training here, and if you are at all struggling with reaching your goals I highly encourage you to check it out.
But in the meantime, know that you need to check that your energy is in alignment with the goal, and then if it isn’t (hint: it’s not in alignment if you have been setting goals and not reaching them) then you need to get to root of this, get rid of and reset your goals.

While the road to burnout doesn’t look the same for everyone on it there are some similarities you typically experience on this path!
You’re always in the weeds of your business
You don’t have efficient systems and processes (or maybe none at all)
You aren’t delegating effectively
You can’t take time off
You’re trying to do too many things at once + wearing all the hats
It’s exhausting just thinking about it! But there’s a way off the hamster wheel!
