The Truth About Setting Goals: Think Bigger!
Are you setting big goals or are you settling for what’s “realistic”? Here’s why you should be thinking bigger!
From a psychological perspective, most of us are programmed to expect a certain level of comfort. We are encouraged by our parents, peers, colleagues, and maybe even customers to be realistic. Many of you may have even voiced big ideas, only to be shot down by naysayers. So, we stay within our safe zones. We set realistic goals that seem within reach. And we celebrate a job well done when we achieve these attainable goals. But here is the problem with this “realistic” mindset: Limiting yourself to what seems real and what you are comfortable with is a trap. You will never scale your business or be as successful a leader as you can be if you stay comfortable. It’s time to stop settling and start thinking bigger.
Let’s say you want to become a millionaire, or turn your store into a franchise, or have 100K followers, or surpass 1 million Shopify sales. Does that seem impossible to you? Ask yourself this: If others can do it, why not you? Push yourself out of your comfort zone and stop listening to the people who would hold you back – including yourself!
