081 - Picking Goals, Pushing Through Plateaus, and Navigating Post-Race Blues
About this episode
Today, Steve, Brad, and Clay discuss three stages of tackling a big, ambitious challenge: (1) How do you find the right goal for you? (Particularly if you're someone who is finding it difficult to get motivated.) (2) How do you push through plateaus—and get used to the monotony of the grind after an initial burst of progress? (3) How to handle the come down that often follows in the wake of working towards something big (whether you hit your goal or not)?
