When setting a goal, many people get inspired by the prospect of something shiny, new, epic, and challenging. Often, though, it's only a matter of time before the goal becomes overwhelming and is lost in the shuffle of busy daily life.
Setting goals can feel like chasing shiny, new dreams, only to watch them slip away in the hustle of daily life. Erin Green and Michael Gray, hosts of 'Middleish', tackle this all-too-common struggle with their signature blend of wisdom and wit. In this episode, they break down the art of setting SMART goals—Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-bound—and highlight why realistic and achievable goals are key to lasting success.
Erin and Michael share personal stories and professional experiences that illustrate the importance of structure and incremental progress. Erin recounts her journey through the Boise Trails Challenge, revealing how a clear plan helped her find joy in spontaneous movement. Michael talks about a cyclist whose life transformed through small, consistent changes. Their anecdotes underscore a crucial point: success is deeply personal, and comparing yourself to others can derail your progress.
One standout lesson from this episode is the importance of flexibility. Michael emphasizes that recognizing when a goal is no longer realistic and readjusting it can prevent burnout and injury. Erin shares her own experience of pulling back during an intense training session, showing that sometimes less is more when it comes to achieving long-term goals. This episode isn't just about setting goals; it's about embracing the ups and downs of the process.
Erin and Michael's conversation is packed with actionable advice and relatable stories that make the daunting task of goal-setting feel manageable. Whether you're aiming to get fitter, eat healthier, or simply live a more balanced life, their insights will help you find your own path to success without going overboard. Tune in to 'Middleish' for a refreshing take on achieving your dreams, one step at a time.
