Ep 47 | Achieving Your Business Related Goals

This episode is the second installment of our Business-Related Goals podcast exploration. In Episode 45: Setting Business-Related Goals, we unpacked the ways in which we can use the SMART goal setting strategy to create the light at the end of the tunnel. In this episode, we discuss the ways in which we build the tunnel to get to that light. Learn how Annie and Leah have used systematic thinking to break big goals into smaller, more palatable tasks and how this strategy has helped them feel more successful, less overwhelmed, and has ultimately led to greater achievements in their private practices and beyond.This episode will help you learn how small, manageable tasks will help propel you forward and boost your confidence by evoking progress. You will also learn the different platforms out there that can help keep you moving along with your eyes on the prize. This systematic thinking has roots in Backward Design, an instructional design method educators use. It involves the creation of an instructional goal and once that goal is established, the professional works backwards to create the steps to lead to that outcome. You can use this systematic mindset to establish business goals so that you can identify the key steps you need to take to begin the necessary forward motion that will ultimately lead to the accomplishment of those goals. Join us and grow with us!"You need to have a way to kind of track your progress and know what things are working, what things aren't working and that you're actually making steps because I feel like the tracking is one of the things that gives me the best motivation for the next thing." In this episode, we will cover:Recap of setting our business-related goals (01:01)Breaking down big goals into bite-sized pieces (05:10)Planning out for the week ahead (08:58) Softwares and systems for your business (13:18)Tracking the results of your actions regularly (16:09)  Links and ResourcesIf your goal includes creating the Private Practice of your dreams that is rooted in ethical care, check out the Lactation Private Practice Essential Course for 50+ hours https://learn.anniefrisbie.com/courseBird by Bird - 1994 Anne Lamott Bird by Bird at the San Francisco Public Library - YouTubeTrello: trello.comClick-up: clickup.comSubscribe to the Deeper Dive Membership: https://learn.paperlesslactation.com/subscription/deeper-dive-membershipHave an idea for a podcast episode or a Deeper Dive?
