It's ready for you. Welcome to stop. You should know greenhouse gas networks. Aid work under the Pakistan Josh Clark with me, as always, is Charles double check right he's here, because he decided to be here method

You're, a successful even being awakened every day and I set goals for myself. The electricity words get out of bed. Take that shower, take the guys from Josh, again cleaners, armpits, Chuck Dine could go and chuck you're real go get her. Yes, I have a bit of a nature, focused solely anecdotal, not necessarily newsy. Maybe the same last year was newsy but check you heard they occupy movement. Of course. Yet, if you go down, was Peter you'll see like baby fourteen stout hearted people? They still, they read my dear hats off too, but that the poor occupy movement, one of the big criticism of it that I remember everything is still floated pre frequently because, as is discussing this with my aunt in you me right MA, am I internal lefty and am she has like very pronounced ideas about the Occupy movement? What a great thing it is

and she she was saying we're talking about whether or not a successful and one of the criticisms of the occupying movies that they didn't have a goals. They were goal is there, and so how could you ever even think about being successful? There's no goals ripe, so I say more there. They were successful and spreading awareness that there's a good plutocracy, and you know there's this one percent there in charge of their successful like that it needed goal, and that kind of part of the point you made the point that we, the arab spring There was based on all had got state stated goal. Mostly, it was getting this one person at a power right, so there's measure success or failure in most of the time of the success rate, or at least it was an ongoing, continued go right

So when I said that the one I was like well, you know they didn't have any goals. I feel like such a smell it just a corporate like dude. Yes, I, while they didn't so they failed at it, and I'm curious, like I feel like we in this country, are very much obsessed with goals. And if we are, we quite success with goals reaching your goals here and not just here. Nobody sees like the west, the West, where I think we should explore them. Without any research whatsoever, illicit, aren't talking right now. Why was I was in interesting reading in this research, because ass, I was kind of all over the place, like pardon me, was like because we're gonna talk about like sometimes goes a great, sometimes there's a downside to them in here? Sometimes you can achieve them right on time. You won't I was vacillating all over the place with it. They are emotionally

it was. I was on a roller coaster, as like man, goals are that great to set. Sometimes you should just be mindful inner frightful about doing great. Now you can't be primal if you're a religious tight because pride as it is a sin. What's the to the goals of what you say, you have to be pride, for you can't be frightful your hands if you're religious right out, ok, ok, Fatima myself now got and then other parts me said in our goals are great, and so I think we're landed was sometimes goes a great. Sometimes they shouldn't be around here. I guess that it probably is context specific, an individual, specific and very pledges to, but at the same time I think part of the problem is light. With this obsession. Is that errors we try to

how to streamline things it, whether its achieving goals or whatever, and so we try to shovel one size fits all thing down people's throats and in this case with goals it cycles in achieving or be unsuccessful. Yeah, there's also sort of two parts to this, which will be intermingled witches personal goals and like corporate type goals, but in it interesting. If you look up goals on the internet,. You, gotta go a long way to get past financial advice, but almost everything is like financial goals, financial goals. If your twenty, you can think about retirement. Yeah stuff, like that, or you run into that guy's, a goose effort, we who are like blinking in disbelief. Yes, we're talking about goals, G

EL ass. You know: what's the fine over talking about everyone has an idea of goals, but we don't want to get confused with something like DR ambition right intention, so save chuck you are you like? I wanted, I wanna be a guitar player. That's an intention right yet over the guitar player, a thing now, a guy sharply would be a goal that, when I guess but you wanna play guitar will decide its intention of saying I be it now I am, I wanna, be able. I wanna be a perfect quality, guitar player within the next six month. That's ago, right the stated goal, or I want to learn the solo for carry on my wayward son by next Thursday night, the better man you got that

and his government you ve been even talking. A lot is MAC. You better be able deliver. My can discover. Ban is actually called wayward son. Every Kansas Cover banned from wayward son we have a club. So why should we starch? We start with the down of goals and in some of the more positive than like how to achieve them. Those talk about goals and in how to achieve their. This is there's been a tremendous amount of study since the seventies and eighties, especially an organization, air psychology. Sure he'll. Psychology is to blame for this. Obsession. I guess a lot of people say yeah and especially in the seventies and eighties, starting their, but that was when people were way into that anything. But my family has this book, another family bookshelf. From life stuff like that, enjoy colliding color? Is your parish you? Yet there is one that I still have. Never I've never been brave enough to crack it open cause. I don't want to like excellently just give snippet of information and I'm ruined as a creative person, but

called becoming a more creative person. You could tell it like it, goal oriented self help book the come more creative is. Is it your dad's us yes m? I have now adopted, it's like a bullet, a cat, talisman units, one as butchers, I've never open. So I'm up, I have what I bring up psychology, because there's a lot there's been a decent man, a study that, under certain circumstances, goals setting goals can be helpful the problem is. If you go to the internet or you get one of the self help books. Are you start listening to self help? Gurus you're gonna get a lot of information and not all of it is good. But, of course all you can do is sort of study and ask questions on people who do it

all right, so kind, hearted determine what is good advice, but I thought this one. Article in particular was pretty good, existed up, ten things only about half of which were good advice, but you will find the and things listed commonly and they are to rediscover the number one step by step plan make a step by step. To motivate yourself by focusing on someone else who is cheap, dissimilar, go right, like look ajar, she quit smoking and he lost a lot of weight and think about me all the time DR resubmit number three tell other people about your goal. You got a lot to your sort of publicly accountable right thinking. Bad things. That will happen if you do not achieve the goal, I think that's negative. Recently. Ok go ahead. Number five talk about the good things happen. If

Do we achieve the goal? Number six suppress unhelpful or negative thoughts about your goal. Item seven reward yourself for making progress number eight reliable. Our number nine record, your progress, number ten fantasize visualize, how great your life is going to be when you achieve that go to the ten did Polly the top ten techniques. According to a psychologist name, Richard Wiseman, who wrote a book, I believe in two dozen tank of fifty nine seconds about goal setting and goal achievement. I get the top ten techniques called from thousands of people. Yes, you wanted to give the big surprise the big twist to that list. That list has a twist to chuck, yet half of whom are proven to make goal achievement harder, attract the even numbered ones were ones there.

People who try? Those techniques usually don't succeed, it meaning a goals. The odd number ones were proven techniques that that Wiseman found were commonly used by people who said a goal and met it right and sadly, in his study of the thousands of participants who had like stated goals like smoking losing x amount of way whatever it was. Only ten percent of them met their goals, but others, ten percent, those outnumbered techniques, were the ones that that That proves successful right and he goes on to point out that you can't prove that that caused is one of causation thing accordingly. The year but related does not prove causation tried so quickly. Again, the odd number one sees are ones that should help you out, make the step by step plan and there's all kinds of articles on caught being concrete.

You, and also it breaks them down into subgoals ores, something smaller invites isolated. Give your more fiscal like becoming a good guitar player in six months right because As you know, I don't know anything about guitars the learning this court, yeah this and when you put it all together and you ve been keeping track of writing a town it it's it's controllable, exactly control freak for in the first place, and now you are able to graphically display their have that right so the plan. I tell other people about your goal. They said it's a good thing to do. Think about the good things will happen, but They say to draw the line at like fantasy land right. Don't do that? No, like wind! You find yourself bathing in a lake of Chocolate BAR and also say I'm telling other people about your goal here. You know, there's like all websites set up till it publicly. Shame you really to keep. You are on track when you're saying

When you do you go there's this guy, we should remember his name. He did he create. He came up with basically the twitter diet. You were you tweet your followers academy, to do this, and then every day you yourself and you tweet the results and then you gain a little way everybody miles? I knew and cause you a loser. Whatever allow keeps you on track and apparently been proven the work on other ones where you you log in, and you track your progress he's not a liar? It shows that it is the it keeps you on track for things like cutting smokers. America, if you go and say I had a security or whatever the other thing wisely deduct and a certain amount from your bank account that's connected to it to pay pal, and they just take your money like say every time over cigarette, I have to pay twenty bucks and when you go on in two tracks, things take your money out of your countenance been shown to work and then interest Lucas. They collect money exactly while love me

no these resolutions are very, very difficult to keep. Get more exercise save more money. What about this? We have a resolution that you can really work with stop wasting time going to the post office that right you stamped out. I'm instead because they bring all the services of the Eu S postal service right to your computer with yours, business sinning invoices or packages. Or an online seller shipping out products stamps that can handle it all with ease yank it. This was simply come you get five cents off every first class, stamp in up to forty percent of priority mail. This right? U S posted twenty four seven for any letter any package, any class anywhere. You want to send it, there's no risk and our promo code, ass white, ass, gay you're, gonna, get this offer afore weak trial, plus free postage and digital scale, and there are no long term commitments or contracts just go to stamp that come click on the microphone,

top of the page and type in s. Why, as K that stance, I come from a goat s. Why, as K stamps that come never go to the polls office. Again, you know. I've thought about clearing something like on a weight loss plan D. Like the stuff, you should know Army, that's a good idea. They keep the honest for sure. Well, but there to support of almost people, be like it's. Ok, Jackie had a nuclear. Like don't worry about it. We still love you. Like. No one would on my feet to the fire No, you do pose a pretty. That is, I think you might be right. Maybe people during courage in, but I think they were right now. I see I see what you mean. You need some sort of on her, it's too bad, that we don't have like I don't know like her fitness podcast or something like that. Those people, really he too Y got. I don't give a shot

and give it a shot. America check is going to need, is the hell? Did you get it well. On that note, though, what I'm doing now is I found that a poundage goal is just in guinea what scale is no good, so I'm workin on, like literally weekly, daily goal: Psych I've gotten a calendar up on my refrigerator and my little marker next to it, and I mark publicly in my household, if I went to the gym that day in the goal each week as Zena four times a week, for you in the weeks that I don't go for times it I'm sitting there looking at it in its shaming. I I think me and I are going to go in together and get Emily arriving crop to smack your ties with I'm. You were you dont, get there, you don't rigid daily, go the other poundage gorgeous. Had someone tell me, I don't get unseen

just like. Well, if you went away to obsess yeah like there, you have it right there, but it also it worked for some people. I know exactly where coming around right here like if that makes sense to you right right, and you then do that, but it works for some people. Further people is just a little too much. Ok, so quickly, the remaining odd things that should help you reward yourself for making progress Does it mean if Europe dieting internal, lose weight? You reward yourself with like the hot but Sunday necessarily and then record your progress, and at all times into the accountability and writing stuff down instead of just visualizing in.

Going about things. They say to be really concrete, like write it down, look at it, make it physical and real, but an that's why they think the goals work when they work is they take things out of this objective and put them into the objective? So the there is a study from the seventies vendor and Simon and a camera benders name, but his name is fairly familiar to me. He came up with something else. I guess it was had formation, but they are. They figured out that I guess they took a bunch of severely obese people yet and divided him into the control group was told to do their best at losing weight. The other group were were told, like you need to lose eczema pounds by this week and extreme repulsed by this week. There they set goal rent and they lost something like

fifty per cent toy. You know twice as much. The peoples of the goals are twice as much of the people who are just told to do their best, and I think it's probably because it's just saying I have something the folk assigned to pay attention to quantify my progress rather than what is doing your best mean. Well there's ambiguity. There is someone writes a boy I did my best in my best didn't good enough. Well, so that no overt near that's, that's absolutely correct not just with weight loss. I mean like people during this whole gold says Seventys and eightys there. There were studies of how setting goals can reduce like accidents in the workplace, sure, ah, how they could reduce. Six days like it became an obsession with companies. Yes to this year, to basically say like hey, everybody said Gore, we're gonna make about money here, and there is. There is also this thing called

skulls. He had never heard of that. I have neither a nose like that smacks of corporate buzz, speak O Yonah. Look better n hanging fruit, it was yet stretched. Goals was coined by the legendary g see oh Jack Welsh and he, he basically said like a stretch goal, is something that you, some were virtually unattainable goal that you give them your employees, to shake him out of there. Another ruts, basically, which is in great people, are finding out nobody. Initially, it does bring us to area to question the chuck. Like this whole, the whole point of what we're talking about is there is why don't? Why came to achieve our goals when worthy, only obstacle well There's been a little research done on the brain, yes and research dash

the brain, trust to protect you from change really yeah like any. It's scary or a fearful, which could be any curbed Changing your patterns, daily habits, it is threatening basis but not only they were given a member when we are talking about shrinking and haven't formation on the video podcast, yes same thing, the brain is look, for a way to streamline the process so that it can use at the least amount of energy possible sure in carrying out something in the way to do. That is discussed do the same thing over and over again near habit formation right sore. Means naturally incline. We think at this point in the this this point neuroscience to finding the path of least resistance. In carrying out something at all the tab. Information already Daniels has a book called boobs thirteen? my practices that waste time and money He argues that they stretch goals are not good for your company, because

he's decided studies that when people in departments failed to reach their goals, then there's a performance decline afterward. So You set up these almost unattainable goals and it's sort of a bit summer for everyone when you don't reach yeah, especially if the the really really working hard to achieve them and there's like it and aftermath where you dislike. What's the point in any other sector where no worker tells often still fail? Well, that's one of the points. Is it with goals it I have looked at as a pass veil thing you did. I mean I guess some. Some Managers are better at sea, and while we we get eighty five percent what our goal and that's really great, but most of the time it we did reach our goal. So we failed right that some that's an inherent problem with goals is what we are talking about with subjectivity and objectivity. Words do your best

right or raise a hundred thousand dollars in six months to write. The good thing about goals is that they take away that subjectivity, but at the same time, like you're saying they set you up for that, the measure success is perfection and down there be a problem for losers. Adam Kaminski as Professor Northwestern Universities, Kellogg School of Management, and he is a co author of a book called gulls gone. What else but he has a quota here that was really relevant and he says that a goal setting has been treated like over the counter medication, which should really be treated with more care as a prescription, strength medication yeah, maybe Willy nilly with it right, well, yeah, it's! It seems like a way to solve a big problem. All at once- and there is a dude named, seem sickened at Duke who did a study of companies that do stretch goals

stretch go away to quantify. These, too are be like the number eleven in flight magazine in the country and say you you're, going to be number one in two quarters. We're gonna be the number one in five magazine in the country to quarters the sky more yeah. Well, that's exerts a huge stretch. Goal and they found him. Sicken who's got one of the better business school professors names of all time. That companies that engage in stretch goals, typically are already desperate, yeah embattled, If they fail at the stretch goal there in big trouble like it's a last ditch thing right and it's a lot to ask of you employed any kind of unfair right, in saying. Ok, why you know what's wrong with our organization that led us to this point? How else could how can we do this? Incrementally, it's kind of like a hail Mary passes, a stretch go right

trusting too. They ve also found out that setting goals that people don't meet lead people to unethical behaviour like when their task to keep track of their own goals, yes and report they will lie when they dont reach their goals, yeah just to say they have that you know the theory or go, but it also you're asking somebody in many words are not so many words I did. Are you successor your failure right when you Did you read your dollar not and on the other, the other aspect of unethical behaviour related the goal. Setting is this the idea When you focus on a goal. It's your it's easier to compromise. You're everyday morality to achieve that goal. Osier an apparently they that's that's a possible outcome of of goal. Setting is that people

start kind of cutting corners and tin, cheating and rain, whatever they need to to achieve that goal, slash be successful well or do weird and dangerous things like my father, he, like eight soup every day for like a year, and that's it like a bowl of soup and war, like one of those plastic suits around like July HEAT Airliner, or you know it is wont to me more or although he I think he ate, like cabbage super literally like six or eight money raid I'll and its dislike, like this not healthy. Now, That's a great example here is something he otherwise wouldn't have done, that's kind of dangerous. It's also are so it's dangerous. It can lead to another behavior another downside that people suggested about goals is that they they can keep you from learning, yeah you're. So

focused on this goal, Amber beyond any new, combined with the fact that your brain is an had information. So it's trying to figure out the easiest way to do this. One thing you end up a tunnel vision and you possibly miss also other opportunities or ways of learning to do this thing better. They may have nothing you with the goal, but wait achieve that goal because you you have blinders, I'm gonna call setting off in his relate diviners, but keep your eyes on the prize. Yeah kind of slipping here in an out of organizational goals, impersonal goals, but they do they do share some common downsize. Yet what I like This research was toward the end of it where some more forward thinking companies are concentrating less on. A number goal that everyone has the meat and more on, what's called mindfulness

being in the moment being present rather than focusing on the future of this parts. Thank of positive psychology to me. But I don't like it mindfulness. Personal, like your goal. For me, I'm gonna set goals like with the podcast other than do an awesome like I dont that we don't want, we don't have like no golden upon him. No wonder we ve been living with the Raven chalk like the ratings are nice, but you and I know, said Anthea like we want to be number five this Are we want this? Many downloads, it's more like you, wake up, and you just like. I want to do a great job today in

in full and in the moment of that- and I know that all hippy Debbie, but fifty talk, ok, so for those of you who do want to keep your eye on the ball and you do carry out goals in you set goals right now. What whether, in addition to those you know steps he described, it is setting goals. One of the things that they have to overcome it feels like is procrastination. The others is interesting. Yet this is a really good interjection. Here was one of the things that keeps you from achieving a goal is just putting off taking it up right in that whole like journey, be you know, the thousand miles begins with one step kind of thing. If that's not work in an tried, the tree fallen in the woods thing. No Buddhist, like I'm axiom, blowgun jar are working. You should hear about this effect. Does I gotta get back or Zaire net

This was name for a russian psychologist, Bloomer Zagging Nick, although said it like, she was german. I don't do that Russian! It's the OECD, new british accident further. She noticed something while she was eating it away. In Vienna. Reportedly, she saw an unlucky I understand how initially down on her but She saw the waiters only seem to remember orders, which were in process of being served once you are completed. They forgot about them yet like. If, if you wanna to a waiter after they take the order, was waiting people ask about the worthy just took they could repeated teacher, but after they brought food out. Maybe that was made. If you ask the waiter their order was they would have no idea where they came back in their life mistaken. You, like, I had the chicken yeah they go, commits,

So she did little studying on this. In some other people- and this is in the nineteen twenties And then later on, Kenneth Mcgraw sixty years later did some it on the. I effect, basically asking people to do, puzzles and string deeds together and do certain tasks and then they would interrupt them, sometimes right and then is the master word on what they remember doing anything more people remembered who had been interrupted than who had completed the tasks right, grand, yes, and so that significant, equally significant in that Kenneth Mcgraw Study? Was that something like ninety percent of the people who were interrupted in the task in told that they were done? They didn't have to complete it continued to pleaded anyway? That would be me yes and that that would drive me nuts if I like, if they gave me a puzzle to do in their liked in pieces. Let me said now get on, and here I would break out out obsess about that. The rest of the day right and then forget about it the whole. The whole point of this is that.

We have some sort of drive to complete the task once we started it so the key to overcome. Procrastination as it relates to the zebra neck effect is to just diving somewhere anywhere else, thing it depending on where they found and following studies that if this is the goal was to lofty if you really couldn't care less about the goal, the zebra neck effect is likely to not have that much of an effect church. But if you do, you know you you're king in order for money, and you need to remember it in your interrupted you're, going to remember this right, yeah that to get around procrastination, you just diving and start, and it sounds like a cop out to say the trick to not progressing start, but it's true and they point out that a lot of people,

be frozen in, and I was like this with my back yard. When we moved into my house, it was like it look like a junk yard, but like a barren dirt, guard- and it was literally one of the things were- I walked back when we first met then- and I was just like- where do I start? I was paralyzed as I gotta know what to do, and then you pull that first weed and within two hours you to bring you back That's the point, though, is start small and be like you know it. Just let me do this one thing and as long as you get the ball rolling chances are you will continue little by little and eventually looked back me like, while the excellent work done in the past six years and apparently it doesn't even have to be you don't even have to start at the beginning to like you didn't have to started this. If it corny, drew in the middle and started messing with whatever

so the year there some traps. We talked earlier about the the techniques that don't work. Apparently some technics narrowly. Don't don't help you achieve your goals. Actually. Are for mental the deleterious to you got inside the decree. As to your tv, you go so, for example, if you, make it go away to specific you might get stuck on that one aspect of it. Rather it in forget the overall. Part right. So let's say you want to be a better guitar player in that was your overall goal, but your goal was to be able, play carry out my wayward sign any folks. I focused I'm just not working it's just not working proxy. Just wasted a bunch of time working on stairway to Heaven that you would have met.

Very quickly in Algeria, confidence from and then explored. Right, rather, you displacing facing frustration after frustration right you also don't have many goals at once, because then you just this- is pie in the sky. Stature and then you also don't want your goals to be too terribly short term. Ok, so, like you want to be a better guitar play right, that's pretty good! Why not be playing sold out arenas eventually and then an even better go loser. It is ok or actually good example. That is with my little play and now, with the the weight thing like the weekly thing,

There is an overarching two month and four month go so it sort of that sort of lines up that, like is not just a week to week, its weak the week with a two month in a four month in mind, but not just two month informant like I have to break down, it set a goal for a year out. I've gotta break it down, but I wonder if, if you set a goal for two month or three month yeah, and it was still a loose eczema away it or go to Jim X number times or whatever. But then you said it after you, others, a larger overarching goal to be. You know tat like some better get better and better cholesterol score a year from now like that for their work or would it set? You personally would set you back in your to shorter term goals if then made a longer term goal. After this, the shortcomings remain.

Like them at the two month and the four month I made one for like a year after that year, you didn't even meet him. You were just like in the midst of only serve to have a kind of like under control, and you, like, our care, might actually meet these. I'm I'm in the thick of em. Why not It may be said, a longer term goal. I think that would work which goes it's in the model of, keeping goals, can gain gain confidence. Well, I just got my degree and organizational psychology this now, you ought to happen very nice, cookies, You know what here's the thing: saving money with Geico was almost better than playing pick up: basketball there's always that guy who joined your game he never passes the rock he instantly bricks theories, and who can we have you and then put his hands up and say no foul, no foul with Geico, it's easy to switch and save on car insurance no need to fake an angel sprain because you're absolutely exhausted. So

which, in save with back it's almost better than sports. Let's see what else chuck well? I know that talk about the younger generation people in their like twenties and early thirties, her actually a little more girl go. Now- then maybe perhaps they were ten years ago and the right yet. I think that people, especially women, there's a big movement for turning thirty, is like it big thing now: incitement, a big thing, but like they're all these blogs. Now, where these women have these goals, I want to do this by the thirty onto turning in I'm twenty nine bring thirty, and I want to get this done in the next year, like sort of of

pre middle age, bucket list type of thing gutter and I think that each pray love book had something to do with that and that movie the Baculus actually never go. You think he wrote it while he was a fellow Pierre with me and allay oh yeah yeah, now he's like some big time movie guy, that's pretty big time. He had a technical use points strings of Nicholson and Dumb Raymond Morgan Freeman, but it will. We know a girl, actually a girl who worked honoured. Our tv pilot Laura has on a blog twenty nine thirty, where she wanted to do something new every day for a year, and now I read it from time to time it and cynical always huge. Things like one might be like make a maker of Turkey Baker, Turkey for Thanksgiving, ok like something she had never done in the middle of July, or one might,

de skydiving like there are large ones, but every single day she wants. It is every day her yeah ethical yet have interesting and that's both short term and long term. But also. I wonder, though, like what will be done with that guy. I see what you say now when you references bucket less desert, we have become like the seventies and eighties. It was very but it's more organizational tional. Now it seems like its transition more to personal gall, setting traveling, then she's new innovative stuff. I guess the point is: what will be and when you know that person since thirty, what will be done when somebody finishes a bucket lesson in there can a sitting around like waiting to die like there's a there. Is in this article that you put together. It was you know, there's the pro goal vetting there was the golden eagle setting can be good and bad. There was a kind of anti goal setting and wanted

things from Anti Eagle setting seemed to suggest like do we even need goals, tourists do we need to set or is it really actually kind of bad psychotic things to setting to set goals, especially, a regular habit near If you are overweight and you want to lose weight and you want to lose weight, maybe go settings getting its throughout your normal day. You're normal life is its goal, setting a good thing, and I really think we kite tapped it on the shoulder at the beginning. When we said, tailored to the individual is with await things. Some people might do very well with the poundage goal and not do crazy things. Some people might do better with you know it on a start out this week by not eating sweets and go into the Three times right, but isn't there also a voice in there somewhere, and it seems like there's not these days, especially in the west, for the people who said I'm happy being fat,

well yeah that that is one of the things I wanted. A psychologist points out is the detriment of goals. Is it sort of puts it take on personal acceptance right, you know crazy ideas, if I did meet my goal, that means I have failed and then I'm not good enough, as I was right and still not good enough, because it didn't recycle yeah, But even beyond setting Failing is there a place in this world and for people who don't cycles, who are not not like shaggy from school yeah, but somebody who, like you know, has a job does work is but isn't like out there like I'm going to make an extra Kay this year, I'm a mom, I'm gonna have three kids in one year watch this crazy.
