from Side Hustle Pro

In this solo episode, I’m sharing the exact 12 week sprint system that completely changed how I set and complete my goals.Instead of giving myself an entire year to “figure it out,” I learned that shrinking the timeline created clarity, urgency, and momentum. I walk you through how I choose my goals, break them down into manageable weekly actions, and build in a recalculation rule that allows for real life instead of an idealized version of it.If you have ever started the year motivated only to feel your goals quietly drift away by February, this episode gives you a simple and realistic framework you can start using right now.In This Episode, I Share:Why yearly goal setting gives side hustlers too much room to procrastinate and how 12 week sprints create clarity and momentumHow I choose just three goals per sprint with one clear focus per monthThe simple way I break monthly goals into realistic weekly tasks that actually get doneWhy daily five minute reviews and one weekly self accountability day keep my goals from driftingThe recalculation rule that helps me keep going when life gets messy without guilt or quittingHighlights Include00:00 Why annual goals do not work for busy side hustlers02:50 How 12 week sprints eliminate procrastination05:55 The rule of only three goals with one focus per month10:20 Why writing my goals down is non negotiable12:40 How I break goals into simple weekly tasks14:45 The recalculation rule that keeps me moving forward17:00 Choosing a weekly self accountability day21:00 Your 12 week sprint challengeLinks Mentioned in This EpisodeGoalgetter Action Plan: https://sidehustlepro.co/goalgetterSide Hustle Pro Website: https://sidehustlepro.co/Watch this episode on YouTube and listen on all podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8tYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/sidehustlepro Hosted on Acast.

Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
