Systems Vs Goals

Jun 15, 2018

When getting things done it might be better to rely on building systems than setting goals!

Let’s talk about three more reasons why you should focus on systems instead of goals.

1. Goals reduce your current happiness.

Choosing a goal puts a huge burden on your shoulders. When you focus on the practice instead of the performance, you can enjoy the present moment and improve at the same time.

2. Goals are strangely at odds with long-term progress.

When all of your hard work is focused on a particular goal, what is left to push you forward after you achieve it? This can create a type of “yo-yo effect” where people go back and forth from working on a goal to not working on one.

3. Goals suggest that you can control things that you have no control over.

You can’t predict the future. But every time we set a goal; we try to do it. We try to predict how quickly we can make progress, even though we have no idea what circumstances or situations will arise along the way.
