When Dreams & Action Collide - Goal Stretching: Pushing Yourself Without Going Overboard

Aired September 17, 2024. In this episode, host Joy Lanae dives deep into the concept of stretching yourself when it comes to your goals. "If you enjoyed Episode 3 on Setting Mid-Year Goals, you'll love this expanded discussion," Joy said. 'I'll share an analogy that came to mind while driving the other day about how stretching yourself, particularly with your goals, is similar to the gradual process a woman's body goes through during pregnancy. Just as the body grows and stretches over time, we too need to gradually stretch our capacity when it comes to our goals. "Many of us wonder how many goals we should be working on at once. Should it be just one or two, or is it okay to have multiple goals in different areas of our lives? The answer varies for everyone and changes with each season of life. "The key is to challenge yourself just enough to promote growth without becoming overwhelmed and burnt out. "In this episode, I'll discuss how to start with a few goals and build from there, avoiding the pitfall of overextending yourself like the mom from The Incredibles. Remember, achieving small goals builds confidence and momentum, while overstretching leads to burnout and loss of motivation."
