Setting Goals That Actually Work For You

Show Notes

Most people don't follow through on the goals that they set for themselves. This is common knowledge. But the more important question is: Why are people struggling to achieve their goals? It turns out that some of it has to do with how we structure our goals and some of it has to do with our motivation for choosing those goals in the first place.

In this episode, Megan and Michael talk about five mistakes that people make when setting goals and how to move forward. Then, Joel speaks to author Luke Burgis about the importance of how we're motivated.

Make sure to check out Luke's book, Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life.
