Big goals don't work alone. Try this instead

Hey,

The last two days, we've covered why traditional planning fails ADHD brains and why consistency feels impossible.

Today, let's get practical.

Here's a hard truth:

Big goals alone are setting you up for failure 😶 

Why?

Because there's a massive gap between "I want to 10x my business" and actually knowing what to do on a random Tuesday morning.

Your ADHD brain needs a bridge between the two.

Let me show you how to build it:

Your Q1 goals (that we discussed the past two days) should follow these three simple questions ❓️

1️⃣ What's the ONE revenue goal that would change everything?

2️⃣ What's the ONE system you need to build?

3️⃣ What's the ONE skill you need to develop?

That's it. Three areas of focus.

Now, here's where most people mess up:

They try to plan out every detail of how to achieve these three things.

And end up creating a mountain of tasks, only to get overwhelmed and fail at stage one.

Don't do that.

Instead, turn each focus area into a “daily minimum win":

Here’s some examples

💰️ Revenue Goal Example: → Big Goal: "Add $5k in monthly revenue" → Daily Win: "Reach out to 5 potential clients"

⚙️ System Example: → Big Goal: "Build a client onboarding process" → Daily Win: "Document one step of my current process each day"

🤹 Skill Example: → Big Goal: "Master sales calls" → Daily Win: "Study one successful call recording each day"

See the difference?

One is vague and will be forgotten. The other is super specific and actually actionable.

Let me show you exactly how I work backwards to these daily wins for my own goals:

👉️ For Q1 2025, I want to sign 30 new clients.

👉️ Based on my conversion rates, I know I need to reach out to over 5000 people to hit this.

👉️ That's 55 people per day.

Suddenly, I'm not overwhelmed by "30 clients this quarter."

Instead, I see a manageable task: "reach out to 55 people today."

With all my automation systems, I know I can do that.

I’m not trying to eat the elephant in one bite. And neither should you.

You're creating tiny, dopamine-friendly actions that move you forward every single day.

One of my clients, Mark, was stuck trying to "scale to 7-figures" (his big goal).

When we broke it down into daily actions: → 5 outreach messages → 1 piece of content → 1 follow-up call

He hit his first $30k month within 6 weeks.

Not because the goal changed.

But because he finally knew exactly what to do every day to move toward it.
