Why you can't stick to your goals | 020
Episode 020 of Whoa to Go
If you have been feeling like your wheels are spinning and you just can’t seem to make any progress on your goals, or if you have been self sabotaging, then this is the podcast for you. Think of this as your mid-year checkpoint. Where are you at with the goals you set at the beginning of this year? In this episode I’m talking about the reasons why you can’t seem to achieve your goals and the sneaky subconscious barriers that might be in play.
Takeaways:
"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got."
"You may really want to change, make a conscious decision to do so, and at the same time have an equally strong internal desire not to change."
Check if your goals are SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time-based)
Identify and challenge competing commitments and limiting beliefs
Seek help from a coach or therapist to identify your internal barriers
