Dr. Vince Leone argues that clarity and brevity matter most in goal-setting. Pick three to five concrete, measurable goals instead of a long list. Too many targets across different areas paralyzes you and kills your chances of actually finishing anything.
Whether that's true or not, I don't know that that really even matters. I think what does matter is clarity. Mm-hmm. So, and frankly, brevity. So, and what I mean by that is clarity in terms of having some tangible and tactical goals where you know for sure whether you hit it or not, and brevity in a sense of you don't need a million goals. I think if you can have some, you know, some key goals, maybe 3, 5 key goals for the business I think then you can focus your energy there and you'll have a better chance at hitting them.
Yes, that's the key. If you, if you get overwhelmed, you can overwhelm yourself if you're like, oh, I have this category of my personal health and I have 10 goals under this and I have my business goals and 10 goals under that and, and my spiritual goals and have a 10-step pro— it's too much. You got to keep it simple and said maybe 3 or 4 or 5 things at the most that you're really pushing towards and hitting. That gives you a much more realistic shot at accomplishing the goals. And ultimately, that's why you do goals, is because you want to accomplish something.
