Show Notes
Most business owners get so stuck in daily operations overwhelm that they forget everything they accomplished throughout the year.
Brad shares his process for helping clients identify wins they didn't even realize they had, while Steve explains the psychology behind why your success list is actually programming you for future achievements.
We tackle the recency effect in performance reviews, why most people announce seven goals when they should focus on two, and how to use your wins as a catapult into 2026 instead of starting from scratch.
Highlights
- Breaking down the overwhelm by separating what feels like fifteen problems into the two actual tasks you need to complete.
- How the recency effect causes recent setbacks to overshadow an entire year of accomplishments in performance reviews.
- Why your success list is actually programming your brain to understand that progress is possible and you can achieve goals with determination.
- The difference between announcing top-line revenue goals that mean nothing to your team versus specific targets like twelve projects of X dollars.
- How analyzing your wins helps you identify whether successes were repeatable systems or random acts of kindness.
