Episode #352: Setting Quarterly Goals
Do you set ambitious New Year's goals only to feel overwhelmed and abandon them by spring? The problem isn't your commitment—it's that annual goals are too big and abstract to maintain momentum.
I break down why quarterly goal-setting is the game-changer your business has been waiting for. When we shift from 365-day marathons to focused 90-day sprints, everything changes.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- Why our brains are wired for shorter goal cycles
- The four types of seasonal goals that create balance: revenue, non-revenue business, personal, and family
- How to choose one most important goal per category
- The "finish line mindset" that helps you push through when motivation wanes
- Why celebrating small progress catalyzes bigger achievements
- How to set up consistent revenue during "lighter" seasons
