Shownotes

In this podcast episode, we explore the concept of goals and the difference between progress and outcome goals. As we embark on a new year, it’s important to set goals that will help us make meaningful, motivated progress towards our larger objectives. But what happens when unforeseen circumstances or external factors impact our ability to achieve our outcome goals? That’s where progress goals come in.

Progress goals are those that focus on the steps or actions needed to achieve a certain outcome, while outcome goals are the end results we hope to achieve. By setting progress goals, we can stay motivated and on track, even if we don’t reach our outcome goals. These types of goals can also help us feel more in control of our progress, as we focus on the actions we can take rather than the end result.

In this podcast, we discuss:
