This is a podcast about ideas that made it to the launch pad but imploded before they left the ground. Lessons we learned, things we realized about ourselves, and reasons we don't follow through on our dreams.

    I need your help - should we keep doing this podcast?

    So, I haven't posted a podcast in almost two weeks. I'm losing interest. Maybe that means you are too. I'm not sure. Starting and leaving something to wither in the sun is a bad habit I have. Today I make some confessions about that, provide an update on my friend's podcast, and ask for your opinion.  Let me know if we should keep this thing going. If we do, let's figure out a format that works for you and works for me.  Connect with me on socials!!

  2. Time - who can master it

    Time - who can master it

    Goals are great but without a timetable for completion, they are nothing more than dreams. The last part of the SMART goals acronym is Time-bound. This is an essential part of measuring your goals, knowing if they are realistic and if they are attainable. Failure to establish a timetable can allow projects to run on endlessly. Time-bound goals will also help you cut out the non-essentials. There are often some items needed to launch while others can be attended to later. Defining the differences is key to moving forward. Time-bound goals will also help you identify problems in your process. If you consistently miss deadlines, there is a problem that has to be addressed. These can be hard conversations but are so important for the growth of yourself and your team.  Connect with me on socials!!

  3. Realistic - don't kid yourself

    Realistic - don't kid yourself

    Aim high but be real about what you can accomplish. This can be a very difficult conversation, but knowing your limitations is the key to finding success. Often people don't want to admit where they fall short. They see this are a threat to their self-worth instead of an opportunity to improve. Being realistic about your goals also ensures you aren't investing time in the wrong area. If you have prerequisites, you'll need to address those first. If you were to skip those intermediate steps, you could end up wasting time which can be a huge setback. It's also important you have a good team around you to be honest about your abilities and workload.  Connect with me on socials!!

  4. Attainable - let's be real about our goals

    Attainable - let's be real about our goals

    You have to do more than believe to achieve. You have to ensure that what you are attempting to do is possible. Now, there are times where you truly attempt to innovate. This can often seem impossible. It's important to be able to distinguish between the two. The different aspects of SMART goals often overlap and you have to each one into account when discussing if something is attainable. Sometimes you may need to adjust smaller short-term goals to achieve the larger one. The main thing is to avoid pie in the sky goals without taking inventory of what it will take to get there.  Connect with me on socials!!

  5. Our greatest fear - a poem of hope

    Our greatest fear - a poem of hope

    Don't be afraid to let your light shine. I first heard this poem quoted in the movie Coach Carter. It was an underlying theme in the movie and a powerful scene. The poem was only quoted in part and I later looked up the entire thing. I've often found it so encouraging. On this particular morning, I was sharing with one of my daughters the power she has as a leader with her peers. This poem was the perfect encouragement for this point. I hope you are encouraged as much as I am by it.  Connect with me on socials!! Twitter: https://twitter.com/Workshop_Joe Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workshop_joe/ Website: coming soon?

  6. Measurable goals - if you can't measure its not happening

    Measurable goals - if you can't measure its not happening

    Do a tree falling in the woods make a sound of no one is around to hear it? I always hated this because you can't prove one way or the other. The crux of the question is can the sound be measured and if it can't does it exist? That's what is essential to a SMART goal. You have to be able to measure you progress. If you can't, how do you know you are getting closer? Connect with me on socials!! Twitter: https://twitter.com/Workshop_Joe Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workshop_joe/ Website: coming soon?

  7. Specific - you can't hit a target if you don't know what it is

    Specific - you can't hit a target if you don't know what it is

    Letter "S" of smart goals is the word specific. You have to clearly identify what your target is. High level is good for brainstorming but if you want to actually achieve something, you have to define what it is first.  Connect with me on socials!!
