We're hosting a series of online workshops on goal-setting, planning, & visioning! Rave reviews from past participants. First event is tomorrow. See you there?

Come to our epic 5h online workshop for guidance on getting clear about where you're aiming in 2020 and beyond: 🎯 Four Goal-Crafting Intensive sessions (Dec 28 & 29, Jan 4 & 5) complice.co/event/plan2020…

We use the term "goal" very open-endedly, so if you're like "ugh but isn't goal-setting soooo 1950s Management By Objectives?" then don't worry, we're with you. It's just a tool for thinking.

Goal = recognizable desired state in the future, that causes you to act differently in the present so as to realize it. If... 🛣️ no recognizable state = "trajectory" 😣 not desired = "should" 👀 not future = "regret" ☁️ no action = "dream" 🤠 actions just for show = "signalling"

We do live chat-based coaching with each participant, in a private slack channel (just you and the coaches). Coaches this year include @SarahAMcManus, @chriswaterguy, @utotranslucence, @mattgoldenberg & probably @QiaochuYuan 🔥😎🤩 Me last year:

Coaching people at our Goal-Crafting Intensive workshop right now and man humanity is beautiful. I love all of these conversations about people's aspirations and challenges.

The self-paced content means you can work on whatever you want (including some activity that's not part of our content) and the personalized coaching means that whatever you're working on, we can help get you unstuck.

The 10 percent of the brain myth is actually onto something! ...but it's not that 90% isn't not in use—it's that... most people have 45% fighting another 45%, so on net there's 10% useful capacity.

Here's a thread I did on choosing goals, based on a little bit of the content from the Goal-Crafting Intensive: (Feel free to ask me more questions here!)

> How do you choose goals? Glad you asked! We host an online workshop on this every New Year's called the Goal-Crafting Intensive. This year we have 4 sessions—sign up here: complice.co/event/plan2020… Here's a high-level thread on some of what we share in the workshop 👇 1/10 twitter.com/realtimeai/sta…

And here's a thread I did on the "goals vs systems" debate. And if it doesn't convince you that goals matter, you can also come to GCI and spend the whole workshop just working on the systems that you want to create! Our coaches have lots to say on that.

The term "pre-success failure" from @ScottAdamsSays' book is a gem. His related idea that you should have systems and not have goals is absurd. (have both!) Scott cites Olympic athletes as examples. 🤨 Take 3 guesses what goal an Olympic athlete has... 🥇🥈🥉
