James Clear argues that focusing on systems (the repeatable processes you follow daily) is more effective than focusing solely on goals. He illustrates this with examples from coaching (practice routines vs. championship), writing (weekly writing schedule vs. publishing a book), and entrepreneurship (sales/marketing processes vs. revenue targets), and emphasizes that committing to systems and showing up daily drives results.
I would like to encourage us to focus on systems rather than goals. Here are some examples. If you're a coach, your goal is to win a championship. But your system is what your team does at practice each day. If you're a writer, your goal might be to write a book, maybe even write a best selling book. But your system is how you write each week, the schedule that you follow. If you're an entrepreneur, your goal could be to build a million dollar business or a $10 million business. But the system is the sales and marketing process that you have. The systems are what actually make the difference. They're what drive the results and what I've seen. Having goals is great. Having a vision, having a dream is nice. It' to know where you're going and where you're headed. It's important to have some clarity of focus to know that we're moving in this direction. But once you know that having to go on paper makes very little difference and committing to the system and showing up every day drives a lot of results.
