giddy, giddy, giddy

Published: Wednesday, 30 November 2011

Why create linear goals when life isn't linear?

Don't create goals that are 1 -> 2 -> 3

Create goals that make leaps ad bounds, like 6 -> 14 -> 28

Creates goals that make you go, "giddy, giddy, giddy" because that may be the motivation you need to actually achieve your goals.
