Forget About Setting Goals. Focus on This Instead.
James Clear, 2017
What's inside?
Working toward a goal can set you up for failure. Work toward daily habits instead.
Recommendation
Set goals and achieve them. This is the recipe for success many motivational speakers, self-help books and high school counselors prescribe. According to author, photographer and weightlifter James Clear, they’ve got it all wrong. Goal setting actually sabotages your long-term progress, he says. Instead, he recommends focusing on the small things you do every day. Learn how your daily routine can put you on the path to success – even if you don’t define it in advance. getAbstract recommends this quick, organized read for goal-oriented people everywhere.
