Why Do We Underestimate How Long Our Goals Take?

“That shouldn’t take that long” might be the most expensive sentence you say about a goal.
We’re remarkably good at describing outcomes in one sentence: write a book, start a business, get a degree, buy a house, launch something, become fluent in another language.
The sentence is simple. The accomplishment usually isn’t.
In this episode, we’re looking at why important goals routinely take longer than expected—and what changes when you stop planning around the name of the goal and start looking at everything required to make the outcome true.
Because once you understand the actual requirements, you can make a much better decision about your timeline, available time, resources, and attention.
Curious what your goal actually requires? Put it into Goal Accomplishment Made Easy™ and see the phases, milestones, deliverables, dependencies, and schedule behind the outcome. Visit app.goalaccomplishment.com.
The goal didn’t suddenly become bigger. You finally counted what it takes to accomplish it.
