In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl unpacks a fascinating lesson about goals, metrics, and intention. Sparked by a conversation about someone else's impressive achievement, he reflects on how quickly arbitrary goals can take root—and how easily we can lose sight of what truly matters. Carl challenges us to examine whether the numbers we chase align with our deeper purpose or if they’re just distractions shaped by others’ expectations. It’s a thought-provoking reminder to focus on what really matters to us, not the metrics that might impress others.
