OS 106: Running and Leadership - Goals

Setting Goals is the Key to Success 2nd of 5 (https://hughballou.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Running-360-Goals-300x180.jpeg) At the root of all success is a vision and intention. We must learn to set achievable goals. I lead teams. I lead meetings. I teach leaders to lead. I can see the end result, because I have defined it clearly. I set a goal to be in shape. I have expressed the goal in terms of running a certain distance in a certain amount of time. I can't accomplish that goal without the following: * The belief that I will succeed... * A description of what it looks like when I have succeeded... * A long-term vision... * Short-term goals... * A weekly schedule... * A daily plan of action... That works for my work, as well as for my running. What about your work? What about your life? Goals are SMART! S = Specific M = Measurable A = Accountable R = Realistic T = Timed Note to the frantic and weary: The "A" for accountable provides the traction that makes goals work.
