#261. Sarah Goes to School: Wildly Important Goals

Class is back in session, ladies!

Once again, Sarah’s sharing study notes from her graduate courses at Concordia University Irvine’s Townsend Institute for Counseling and Leadership. In this episode on achieving “wildly important goals,” she covers how to:

• Identify and focus on life goals that are “wildly important” — and worth going after wholeheartedly
• Act on “lead measures” of progress while tracking that progress through “lag measures”
• Keep a “compelling scoreboard” to help you visualize and celebrate every small achievement
• Create a “cadence of accountability” to keep you honest, on pace, and moving forward

“If you made ONE change in behavior, habits, schedules, what would it be that changes the course of your life?” Sarah challenges Erin and Sarah in this episode, adding later, “This is supposed to be a winnable game, but also a really high-stakes game.”
