Where does your ladder lean?

Where does your ladder lean?

Most people make things happen by setting goals. They make decisions and believe that the stage is set for success. Or is it? Deciding what you want and setting goals are often steps taken toward achieving your definition of success, and studies have shown that setting high and specific goals can lead to an increase in performance and motivation. However, for many, these goals set are never realised. I believe there is a more effective way to commit to a life of joy and fulfilment by using an alternative to goal setting.

I’ve been a goal setter from way back — my teams and I?kicked?a lot of personal and business goals. But as time passed, I saw that setting and achieving a goal does not necessarily equal fulfilment. In fact, I saw a lot of high achievers who were not happy or fulfilled because, at some point, as they?climbed the ladder of success,?they found their ladder was leaning on the wrong wall.?Ouch!

I’ve felt that?ouch?myself, and it was the most painful but greatest tipping point of my life. As a result, I teach an alternative to goal setting that delivers life-changing results. I believe fulfillment comes from moving forward in a direction aligned with our values — setting what I call “value-based directions” rather than goals. A goal achieved will get things done, but a value-based direction will get the things done that matter.

If goal setters set value-based directions, there would be more ladders leaning on the?right?wall and people living a life of fulfilment and joy!


P.S. What would Joy do?

Set value-based directions.
