Why Women So Often Find Themselves Struggling With Goal Setting

Time to Level Up

Jan 2 2024 • 33 mins

Do you say things like, “I don’t set goals. I avoid them. Goal setting is too hard and a waste of time”?

Lots of women say these kinds of comments to me on consultation calls when I ask them about their goals. In a previous episode released back in the summer of 2022, I referred to “anti-goalers.” Now, a year later, I have a more accurate perspective about those who might avoid or have trouble with goal-setting and why.

In this updated episode of Time to Level Up, you’ll get to eavesdrop in on your own thinking about goals and learn which of two “anti-goaler” categories you fall into if you struggle with setting and reaching your goals. I’ll also teach you 10 reasons why women tend to avoid goal-setting in general.

5:45 - Do you have a bit of the “anti-goal” in you?

7:41 - The two categories you can fall into if you have trouble with setting goals you want

13:05 - What I want you to consider as you continue listening

15:10 - Ten reasons why women either don’t set goals at all or don’t set the ones that’ll move the needle

28:55 - A possible 11th reason for avoiding goal-setting and what I recommend you do next
