RE: The Thinker's Corner - Recalibrating goals

in #thinkerscornerlast year (edited)

I've found you need to start with a very clear understanding of how success will look; otherwise you risk pushing it away or pulling it closer over time.
If you only have a vague idea of what you're aiming to achieve, you can fall into either close enough or never good enough mindsets
Know your target, aim, fire, then stop to reflect and either learn or celebrate.

Yeah, I think that's super spot on. Ideally the reflection part would hopefully be a regular part of the activity to fine-tune or recalibrate or even try something completely different.

In the past I've never been good at celebrating my achievement, when I'd hit my target I'd immediately be thinking about what's the next target... instead of trying to learn what I could from that experience.
