What are you sick of hearing about?
Post your answer in the LEAVE A COMMENT section below. I’m not the boss of you, though. Don’t write anything for all I care! Frankly, I’m sick of having to even ask.
. . .here are my thoughts.
What are you sick of hearing about?
SMART goals. It’s no longer enough to make goals like we were taught in grade school: a couple intermediate steps escalating toward an ultimate goal. A goal that, since few people are ever truly content with their lot in life, is merely an intermediate step to an even more ambitious goal. Continue ad nauseam until some monumental moment: you no longer possess the ambition to continue; you realize lack of talent and poor work ethic will never allow you to reach your goal; or you die. Praise the Lord, though, we have SMART goals.
- Specific: The more specific the better. (Become POTUS.)
- Measurable: How do you measure progress? (Votes.)
- Achievable: Is it realistic? (If Trump can do it …)
- Relevant: Does this goal relate to your overall ambition? (Live in a mansion.)
- Time-Based: When will it be completed? (January 20th.)
So much time is wasted in meetings—whether these meetings be in your own head, or seated around a table with your team. I’m sick of it! Rather than contemplating how to achieve a result, make actual strides toward its achievement. Let’s actually be smart and get back to just getting shit done.
