Systems, habits, and goals

James Clear has a great quote in his book, Atomic Habits:

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.

Your goal is your desired outcome. Your system is the collection of daily habits that will get you there.

This year, spend less time focusing on outcomes and more time focusing on the habits that precede the results.”

It’s the same in your business.

Instead of goals, create systems that lead to habits that lead to results.

Write that daily email. Do that quarterly webinar. Reach out to those 10 people each month. Publish that podcast.

Create a system for you and your clients that make your goals not only achievable, but realistic.
