BTD5 - Know Your Stats

from Big Things Done Podcast · host Andrew Glover

Are you tired of giving up on your dreams and goals when things get hard? Pay attention to your stats. We have been taught to only think about stats that are in the past - how much money we’ve made, what our profit margins were, how much weight we’ve lost. We call these metrics “lagging metrics”, because they only tell you about what happened in the past. These stats are ok, but they aren’t the best, because they don’t give any indication that you can do better or are moving toward your goal. That’ll make even the best person eventually want to quit. Here’s a better approach - start paying attention to your leading metrics. Leading metrics are actions that you take to influence a future event. These are metrics, that if you do them well, you will reach your goal. I guarantee you already know what these are, but I’m willing to bet that you don’t use these to say you’re successful on a daily basis. You should start. If you are tired of feeling bad about not reaching your goals and want to start making progress toward your BIG THING, listen to the episode to learn about how to use your stats properly! Here is the link to the Chainbreaker Ride organization that I mention in the episode.
