No one succeeds alone \u2014 yet, most people try to. One of the biggest mistakes we see people making is that they set goals by themselves, and then they struggle throughout the year because the people who are in their life \u2014 the people who have to buy into their goals if they want to accomplish them \u2014 aren\u2019t on the same page. That\u2019s why we created The ONE Thing Couple\u2019s Goal-Setting Retreat, modeling an exercise that Jay and Wendy Papasan have been doing for the past decade. The point isn\u2019t to negotiate for whose goals are right, but for each person to understand what the other person\u2019s goals are and how they can support the other person in achieving those goals. In this episode, we\u2019re going to look at what happens when a couple, for the first time, sets their goals together. The results are pretty amazing, but here\u2019s the best part: you can do it too. If you want to put the ideas discussed in this episode into action, consider joining us at our Goal-Setting Retreat. And if you can\u2019t make it to Austin this year, we\u2019ll help you host your own retreat with the Kick Ass Guide\xae to Your Couples Goal Setting Retreat and the Goal Setting Retreat Master Course. In this episode, you will learn... [13:20] How you know when you aren\u2019t on the same page with the people close to you. [17:50] What has surprised Jake and Alyx since their goal-setting retreat. [25:40] Why you should set goals with not just your significant other, but also your business partner and/or team. [29:10] What you should avoid when you\u2019re setting goals.
