Impossible goals are the key to effective goal-setting. This concept, created by Brooke Castillo of The Life Coach School podcast, is a brilliant take on hope, faith, and taking action.
In my last blog post, I talked about an amazing technique to set your end of the year goals: backwards goal setting (read it here). Today, I’m taking all about Impossible Goals.
As a mindset coach and goal-setting expert, I see so many people setting goals that are too vague, or too demotivating, or… too possible.
Now, I’m not pro-capitalism or pro-hustle. I promise you that. BUT I do believe that personal and professional growth is a daily journey, and having strong goals + systems helps you on that journey more than you realise.
What are impossible goals?
I first heard about “impossible goals” on Brooke Castillo’s The Life Coach School Podcast. And I loved the concept so much. Because an Impossible goal isn’t literally impossible — it’s just something that seems out of your grasp RIGHT NOW.
Here’s a personal example: I want to make 6-figures in my business by December 2021 (for a variety of aligned reasons).
Honestly? That goal feels impossible right now. I can’t imagine making that much money. But what I can do is set that goal and work towards it, and even if I don’t get to 6-figures by December 2021… I’ll be a lot closer than I would have been if I’d just said, “I want to make $1,000 to $2,000 more than usual each month.”
The point is to have your end goal be “impossible”, but the action steps you take daily need to be possible.
Mine are: 1) do the inner work, 2) create fantastic content, 3) study for my Yes Supply Method coaching certification, and 4) take aligned action, do my part, and trust the Universe.
