WHY YOU CAN'T STICK TO YOUR GOALS: FORGET GOALS, FOCUS ON SYSTEMS INSTEAD | SYSTEMS VS GOALS

Hey everyone!

In this "systems vs goals" video, I'll be sharing how forgetting about your goals and focusing on systems instead, can actually help with making concrete progress and seeing tangible change in your life. After reading the book ATOMIC HABITS, I realized that the reason why I could not stick to my goals and achieve them was because I wasn't setting effective systems! “You don’t rise to the level of your goals, you fall to the level of your systems.”

I'm a few pages into reading the book Atomic Habits, I'm utterly disappointed at that I didn't get this book sooner, I suddenly feel an overwhelming sense of urgency and regret the amount of things I've let slide. I'm realising that we are all victims and products of our own ignorance, what we don't know now will destroy our future and we don't notice it until its too late! If you're watching this please, PLEASE make an effort to get this book.. Yoh!

The greatest battle for me is consistency, I’m guilty of depending on those short burst of motivation to start something🥲, I realize as you’re speaking that when you’ve left bad habits unattended for a long time it’s an intimidating & tedious process having to develop a system of unrooting each of them individually, but it has to be done. Thank you so much for this.

So no one is going to mention how amazing her skin looks😍😍😭 one of my goals this year is getting my physical self to where I've always wanted it to be. Please drop us your skin care routine.

Always been a systems person... So happy to find people who can relate..
I always think I see the goals when I get there then focus on what I'm doing at the moment to get there.
Don't loose the positive energy ⚡ ✌️💕

This video is so important especially at this time of the year. Thank you so much 😍 & you look radiant as always ✨

Goal: Setting boundaries to avoid overworking myself to a point of exhaustion & breakdown.
System: still thinking about it 😂😭

This was a helpful video for the end of 2021! I’m viewing this right before I set my goals and now systems to achieve my goals set for 2022!! New subbie here😃😃

This was so informative 😊 I needed to watch this. I had so many goals these past few years and I’ve realized that I’ve been putting off my happiness for a while until I achieve them. I’m going to enjoy every moment of my journey from now on. Today I’m dedicating time to write my goals vs my systems. And I definitely need to purchase this book. I’m a first time watcher but I’m definitely a new fan♥️

Happy New Year! Fresh start, creating systems of change to help achieve goals! Thank you Lethu

Very useful video. I bout this book but read first 10 pages. I should go back and read the whole book. I can also listen to the audiobook to. You are doing a great job. You could do even better if you give some examples and slowdown little bit. I will try to watch all your videos. Thank you for making me to revisit atomic habits. Happy New year 2022

Also what does Clear give as a limit to healthy systems. Like with goals I can easily have 8-10 major Goals for the Year. With the systems approach how many can you focus on at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed, I'm assuming at first, the systems approach may seem overwhelming.

Process creates the prize. Appreciate wena reviewing and sharing this, siyabonga!

What a enlightening Video. Thank you soo much Lethu. I love this systems approach. Please show us a practical example of setting a system aligned with your Goals. With goals, it's easy because you put everything in a vision board and you sort of live up to it. So with system do you set a routine for each Goal or a vision in a board or say personal diary. I'm just struggling to see how you put a system into action if it's not written down.
