Episode #34 Keep Progressing!

June 25, 2024

If you think success is all about achieving your goals, think again. Real success comes from a belief in the value of progress and a commitment to keep progressing for the entirety of your career and beyond.

One of the common mistakes I see people make (especially in the legal industry) is to be so focused and fixated on achieving the goal, that they ignore or discount the progress they make along the way and miss out on the enormous value this brings.

In this episode:

what progress is
why it’s the only goal you’ll ever need
12 reasons why recognising the progress you make towards your goal is more valuable to you than achieving your goal
