How To Set Realistic Timeframes for Your Goals
• 17 minHave you noticed that putting that new offer together, creating a new program, or organizing the next retreat almost every time takes longer than you initially planned? In this episode, I'm talking about our brains' tendency to underestimate the time, energy, work, and effort goals we want to achieve or things we want to create demand. Whether it is because we overlook the complexity of specific tasks or design roadmaps with our heads more on the finish line than the course, we ignore that unforeseen things are likely to happen and delay our original plans, leading to frustration and uncertainty, and we must be ready for that. Planning or being prepared for the unexpected sounds like an oxymoron, but it's kinda what I'm saying. The first step is understanding why our brain underestimates these things and what we can do to avoid these pitfalls. Throughout this episode, you'll learn why our minds seem to ignore the fact that most things aren't built overnight and what you can do to avoid feeling frustrated when things go south or take longer than expected to be completed. I also share five points explaining why our brains underestimate the effort needed for our entrepreneurial ventures, a practical tool to deal with procrastination, and much more.
