1
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,430
Well, Hey everybody,
Jonathan Doyle with you.

2
00:00:09,430 --> 00:00:11,680
Once again, welcome back
to the daily podcast.

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,629
Great to have the
pleasure of your company.

4
00:00:13,629 --> 00:00:14,919
We are about to do.

5
00:00:15,370 --> 00:00:21,250
Day three of the four-part
woop goal setting master class.

6
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,700
Now, if you have been listening to
the other two episodes so far, you're

7
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:26,200
going to notice a big difference today.

8
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:31,330
Of course, you will notice that the
audio quality over the last few episodes.

9
00:00:31,779 --> 00:00:35,530
Probably about the last three or four
has been somewhere south of a Bismal.

10
00:00:35,860 --> 00:00:36,700
We recorded them.

11
00:00:36,849 --> 00:00:41,590
Uh, in the studio using, uh, you know, we,
we were recording video at the same time

12
00:00:41,590 --> 00:00:43,450
and we'd been splitting out the audio.

13
00:00:44,020 --> 00:00:46,720
And, uh, we had everything
set up correctly and the mikes

14
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,860
went working the right way.

15
00:00:47,860 --> 00:00:50,680
So you'll notice if you've been
listening the last couple of days,

16
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,600
the audio was, uh, was terrible.

17
00:00:52,900 --> 00:00:53,710
I do apologize.

18
00:00:53,710 --> 00:00:54,700
So we're back today.

19
00:00:54,970 --> 00:00:58,090
On my favorite microphone,
regular listeners know I've got

20
00:00:58,090 --> 00:00:59,350
a thing for good microphones.

21
00:00:59,350 --> 00:01:00,400
I'm back on the shore.

22
00:01:02,230 --> 00:01:07,720
Running through a persona studio, 68
pre-amp everyone goes, we did not.

23
00:01:08,260 --> 00:01:09,100
Listening.

24
00:01:09,490 --> 00:01:12,490
To hear about your microphone choices,
but the good news is hopefully

25
00:01:12,490 --> 00:01:13,899
this audio quality is heaps better.

26
00:01:14,350 --> 00:01:16,300
And it's a more full podcast version.

27
00:01:16,899 --> 00:01:19,600
Uh, I've made the decision that
I'll keep putting all the content

28
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,630
out on YouTube, but I'm going to
do dedicated podcast versions now.

29
00:01:23,110 --> 00:01:25,089
It's an easier platform
for me to work with.

30
00:01:25,089 --> 00:01:28,119
I just tend to go a bit
deeper on the podcast version.

31
00:01:28,119 --> 00:01:31,539
So I hope today's going to
be really useful for you.

32
00:01:31,539 --> 00:01:35,410
As we go on to day three of this
masterclass, a housekeeping,

free access to my book, bridging the gap.

42
00:02:01,060 --> 00:02:03,280
There's links where you can
find a, how to book me to speak

43
00:02:03,310 --> 00:02:04,960
coaching, all sorts of other things.

44
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,610
So please check out those show notes.

45
00:02:07,060 --> 00:02:07,479
Okay.

46
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:09,130
Let's do a quick review.

47
00:02:09,130 --> 00:02:13,570
We're on day three day one in this
woop goal setting master class from Dr.

48
00:02:13,570 --> 00:02:15,160
Gabrielle engine.

49
00:02:15,670 --> 00:02:20,530
Who simply somebody that has thought
deeply about goals, um, goal efficacy.

50
00:02:20,920 --> 00:02:24,910
And choosing systems, you know,
goals sitting that actually

51
00:02:24,940 --> 00:02:26,890
help us and don't hinder us.

52
00:02:27,430 --> 00:02:28,420
So it's easy enough.

53
00:02:28,450 --> 00:02:32,290
Isn't it to identify when there are things
in life we want to change, but my gosh, it

54
00:02:32,290 --> 00:02:34,510
can be hard sometimes to really execute.

55
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,400
I'm always interested in that question.

56
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,070
Why is it that sometimes
we just don't execute.

57
00:02:39,430 --> 00:02:41,109
Quite the way we want to.

58
00:02:41,290 --> 00:02:45,400
So on day one of the master class,
we started with the w of the whoop.

59
00:02:45,460 --> 00:02:46,510
Uh, acronym.

60
00:02:47,230 --> 00:02:50,920
The w standing of course, for wish for
the identification of what we want to

61
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:55,120
change, what we want to have in our lives,
what we want to remove from our lives.

62
00:02:55,390 --> 00:02:56,740
But for most of us, it will be.

63
00:02:57,070 --> 00:03:00,790
Uh, an articulation of something that's
important to us, something that we

64
00:03:00,820 --> 00:03:03,609
want to improve or add into our lives.

65
00:03:04,180 --> 00:03:06,519
The second day we looked at the outcome.

66
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,410
So I've got the w is wish the first
O is outcome, which is a crucial

67
00:03:11,410 --> 00:03:16,690
step because it helps us realize that
it's rarely, the actual wish itself.

68
00:03:16,930 --> 00:03:18,670
That's truly what we desire.

69
00:03:19,090 --> 00:03:21,220
The wish is often a kind of.

70
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,130
What's the word, I guess like an icon
or a representation of a deeper value

71
00:03:27,130 --> 00:03:28,900
underneath that we're trying to pursue.

72
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,070
So today or yesterday, we talked
about outcome being clear on whether

73
00:03:33,370 --> 00:03:37,540
whatever that wish is, what is the
underlying driving force behind it?

74
00:03:37,660 --> 00:03:42,190
When you achieve the X in your life, what
will it give you when you experience more

75
00:03:42,190 --> 00:03:46,329
freedom, more peace, more connection,
more intimacy, more joy, more excitement.

76
00:03:46,900 --> 00:03:49,390
Because all of those things,
you know, For the people who

77
00:03:49,390 --> 00:03:51,490
go and buy a brand new Ferrari.

78
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:59,320
Their wish wasn't to have a bunch of metal
and electronic and mechanical componentry

79
00:03:59,350 --> 00:04:01,600
arranged in a particular format.

80
00:04:01,990 --> 00:04:04,150
You know, that's ultimately
what a Ferrari is, isn't it?

81
00:04:04,210 --> 00:04:08,530
It's, it's, it's metal, it's electrical
engineering, it's mechanical engineering.

82
00:04:08,530 --> 00:04:10,450
All these things put together
in a particular form.

83
00:04:10,660 --> 00:04:13,180
Nobody has a wish that
says that's what I want.

84
00:04:13,180 --> 00:04:16,120
I want, I want all these components
arranged in a particular way.

85
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:19,779
As they drive out of the showroom
and they're heading down the freeway.

86
00:04:20,169 --> 00:04:21,760
There's a feeling attached to it all.

87
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,120
Isn't there.

88
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,670
All of a sudden there's a feeling
I'm driving my brand new Ferrari.

89
00:04:24,670 --> 00:04:25,270
What is that?

90
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:30,130
It's it might be a feeling of, um,
of achievement or attainment or, or.

91
00:04:30,250 --> 00:04:33,760
You know, or blessing or, you
know, joy who knows if it's going

92
00:04:33,790 --> 00:04:34,630
to be different for everybody.

93
00:04:34,630 --> 00:04:34,870
Right.

94
00:04:35,590 --> 00:04:37,000
And this Ferrari is just one example.

95
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:37,630
It could be anything.

96
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,590
But always remember that behind
what it is you're chasing is a much

97
00:04:41,620 --> 00:04:47,350
deeper motivation, some experience,
some human emotion or psychological

98
00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:48,580
state that we're pursuing.

99
00:04:48,580 --> 00:04:51,400
So the second part which we did
yesterday was really getting clear.

100
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:55,030
On what those underlying drivers
are for you, because you want to

101
00:04:55,030 --> 00:04:56,469
be really in touch with those.

102
00:04:56,980 --> 00:04:57,909
You want to honor them.

103
00:04:57,940 --> 00:04:59,080
You want to recognize them.

104
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,200
You want to leverage them and
use them as a kind of fuel.

105
00:05:02,770 --> 00:05:03,040
Okay.

106
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,770
So we are on to day three,
which is the second.

107
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:06,100
Oh.

108
00:05:06,159 --> 00:05:08,409
In the woop methodology WW.

109
00:05:08,469 --> 00:05:10,060
Oh, the second I was all the second.

110
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,320
Oh, when the third day.

111
00:05:12,010 --> 00:05:12,909
Is obstacles.

112
00:05:13,330 --> 00:05:15,040
Obstacles obstacles obstacles.

113
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,469
You look at the famous book
from Ryan holiday, where he

114
00:05:17,469 --> 00:05:19,300
said the obstacle is the way.

115
00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:21,280
A couple of thoughts first.

116
00:05:22,060 --> 00:05:22,510
Well, Dr.

117
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,300
And realized is that people are good.

118
00:05:25,690 --> 00:05:30,040
At articulating the wish people can
even get good at articulating the

119
00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:32,140
underlying drivers and motivations.

120
00:05:32,650 --> 00:05:36,130
But she realized that in most goal
setting methodologies and in the way

121
00:05:36,130 --> 00:05:40,270
that most people go about goal setting,
The problem is that we pay very little

122
00:05:40,270 --> 00:05:44,860
attention to thinking about the potential
obstacles that will come our way.

123
00:05:44,860 --> 00:05:46,180
So we get excited about goals.

124
00:05:46,210 --> 00:05:48,580
We get motivated, we get
going and write them down.

125
00:05:48,580 --> 00:05:48,730
We.

126
00:05:49,330 --> 00:05:50,830
We start to put some effort into them.

127
00:05:51,010 --> 00:05:54,100
And then all of a sudden, a whole
bunch of things start to go wrong

128
00:05:54,159 --> 00:05:57,909
and we get problems and setbacks
and difficulties and delays.

129
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,300
And at that point, it can be very
hard for a lot of people to continue.

130
00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:03,610
A lot of people sort of give up
and think, well, you know, this

131
00:06:03,610 --> 00:06:06,969
is too hard or often we don't
even articulate that to ourselves.

132
00:06:06,969 --> 00:06:08,620
We don't even tell
ourselves we're quitting.

133
00:06:08,650 --> 00:06:11,080
We just kind of slowly stopped trying.

134
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,020
And then the goal drifts
away and more time passes and

135
00:06:14,020 --> 00:06:15,400
life just goes on the same.

136
00:06:16,030 --> 00:06:19,450
So the third Owen, our
masterclass this third day.

137
00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:24,340
Input is really around taking the
time to recognize all of the potential

138
00:06:24,340 --> 00:06:26,050
obstacles that are going to come your way.

139
00:06:26,260 --> 00:06:30,880
When you begin to pursue something
meaningful, you want to lose 10 kilos,

140
00:06:30,909 --> 00:06:35,380
then you can easily identify the wish
you can easily identify the outcome.

141
00:06:35,380 --> 00:06:37,659
When I lose that 10
kilos, I'll feel happy.

142
00:06:37,930 --> 00:06:39,190
I'll feel beautiful.

143
00:06:39,190 --> 00:06:40,360
I'll feel handsome.

144
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,120
I'll feel athletic, whatever it
is, we can find the outcomes.

145
00:06:43,780 --> 00:06:47,800
But very little of, very, sort
of very infrequently do we also

146
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,480
go well, when I start this.

147
00:06:50,140 --> 00:06:52,600
You know, I'm going to be going to
business lunches, or I'm going to be

148
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,409
seeing my family every weekend and
we always eat all this amazing stuff.

149
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,130
So we don't recognize the potential
obstacles they're going to come.

150
00:07:00,130 --> 00:07:05,290
And then we don't develop a response
plan or response pattern of how

151
00:07:05,290 --> 00:07:07,300
we're actually going to deal with
those things when they come up.

152
00:07:07,930 --> 00:07:09,670
So, what I want to do with you
today is I want to ask you to

153
00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:10,930
think about what is your wish.

154
00:07:11,830 --> 00:07:13,840
Identify the driving
outcomes underneath it.

155
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,170
And then let's begin to think about
what are all the potential obstacles

156
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,940
that are going to come your way.

157
00:07:19,180 --> 00:07:20,170
And this sounds like work.

158
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:20,560
Doesn't it.

159
00:07:20,590 --> 00:07:20,770
Then.

160
00:07:21,190 --> 00:07:24,310
Often in the journey of personal
development and success, people

161
00:07:24,460 --> 00:07:26,230
just find it hard to do this work.

162
00:07:26,260 --> 00:07:28,719
It's actually easier to
kind of go man, blah, blah.

163
00:07:29,050 --> 00:07:30,010
I can write the goal.

164
00:07:30,010 --> 00:07:33,400
I can write a couple outcomes,
but you know, This stuff, you

165
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,630
know, maybe things will happen.

166
00:07:34,630 --> 00:07:36,430
Maybe they won't, or I
really need to do this.

167
00:07:36,430 --> 00:07:38,770
Well, the research makes
it pretty clear that we do.

168
00:07:39,370 --> 00:07:44,469
That we do need to identify all the
possible things that can go wrong and

169
00:07:44,469 --> 00:07:48,310
that are going to stretch us and test
us when we pursue anything meaningful.

170
00:07:49,420 --> 00:07:51,430
So the first thing is to
identify the obstacles.

171
00:07:51,460 --> 00:07:53,980
The other thing to realize
always about obstacles.

172
00:07:53,980 --> 00:07:57,280
And this is what I think Ryan
holiday was getting at in his book.

173
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,510
The obstacle is the way.

174
00:07:59,050 --> 00:07:59,590
Is that.

175
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:02,740
When obstacles come into our
lives, we often resist them.

176
00:08:02,770 --> 00:08:03,100
Don't worry.

177
00:08:03,130 --> 00:08:04,210
I mean, we don't want them.

178
00:08:04,210 --> 00:08:06,159
There's something that we
don't want in our life.

179
00:08:06,190 --> 00:08:07,360
We don't want obstacles.

180
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,620
We don't want problems.

181
00:08:09,310 --> 00:08:10,060
But they come.

182
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,960
And what I want to suggest to you
as I have for many, many years is.

183
00:08:14,740 --> 00:08:19,210
The obstacles we face tend to
force us to quit or to blame.

184
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:20,890
Ought to be a victim.

185
00:08:21,909 --> 00:08:24,100
Or they force us to grow and to change.

186
00:08:24,130 --> 00:08:26,800
Uh, they force us to grow and to change.

187
00:08:27,070 --> 00:08:29,740
So one of the great things about
personal development and goal setting

188
00:08:29,740 --> 00:08:33,730
is not just that we bring into our
lives, things that are meaningful for

189
00:08:33,730 --> 00:08:36,190
us, but that it also forces us to grow.

190
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,360
I mean goals by their very nature
have to force us to grow because if

191
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,559
they didn't, they wouldn't be goals.

192
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,110
We would have everything we want
right now, and we wouldn't really

193
00:08:44,110 --> 00:08:45,370
want to pursue anything else.

194
00:08:45,730 --> 00:08:47,890
But that's not a human
experience is that we all.

195
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,000
Experience things encounter things that
we would love to have in our lives,

196
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,400
but these obstacles force you to grow.

197
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,500
Yes, but they're not pleasant.

198
00:08:56,500 --> 00:08:56,680
Yes.

199
00:08:56,680 --> 00:08:59,200
We don't want them, but they
will force you to become

200
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,420
creative, adaptive, resilient.

201
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:04,720
To be tougher physically,
mentally, spiritually.

202
00:09:05,110 --> 00:09:05,500
So.

203
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,930
Please take some time today.

204
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,840
If you haven't done it already,
as we work through this process.

205
00:09:11,439 --> 00:09:12,520
Identify your wish.

206
00:09:12,580 --> 00:09:13,630
What is it that you want?

207
00:09:13,990 --> 00:09:15,310
Identify the outcome.

208
00:09:15,310 --> 00:09:19,840
What are the deeper experiences behind the
wish that you're really trying to pursue?

209
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,750
And then third, I want you to get
that journal or go for walking

210
00:09:22,750 --> 00:09:24,280
at least think about, okay.

211
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,140
If I'm going to try for X.

212
00:09:26,590 --> 00:09:29,530
What are all the reasonable obstacles
they're going to come my way?

213
00:09:29,740 --> 00:09:31,150
How can I mitigate them?

214
00:09:31,150 --> 00:09:32,020
It's basically, what is it?

215
00:09:32,020 --> 00:09:35,500
Risk management, you know,
like, um, uh, risk planning.

216
00:09:35,500 --> 00:09:38,260
What are we, there's all sorts of
different fancy names and job titles.

217
00:09:38,260 --> 00:09:40,390
These days for organizations that have to.

218
00:09:40,900 --> 00:09:44,260
Do all this kind of scenario planning,
risk planning, risk management.

219
00:09:44,260 --> 00:09:44,950
What if this happens?

220
00:09:44,950 --> 00:09:45,730
What if that happens?

221
00:09:45,730 --> 00:09:47,200
What is the stock market crashes?

222
00:09:47,950 --> 00:09:50,950
You know, locusts, eat our crops,
who knows fill in the blank.

223
00:09:50,950 --> 00:09:51,310
Right.

224
00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:54,970
There's always going to be obstacles, but
it doesn't mean that we can't think about

225
00:09:54,970 --> 00:09:56,710
them in advance and be prepared for them.

226
00:09:57,310 --> 00:09:59,680
So my friend, what are the
obstacles you are going to face?

227
00:09:59,680 --> 00:10:03,340
What are the specific obstacles
that you are going to face?

228
00:10:03,790 --> 00:10:07,540
When you begin to pursue these meaningful
wishes, dreams, and goals in your

229
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:10,990
life, write them down, get, you know,
write them down and say, okay, yep.

230
00:10:11,140 --> 00:10:12,970
I want to do this, but then
this is likely to happen.

231
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,070
If this happens, then
I'm going to try do this.

232
00:10:15,310 --> 00:10:17,920
If this thing happens, then I'm
going to make a decision to do this.

233
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,800
And this is the kind of effort, energy.

234
00:10:20,950 --> 00:10:23,980
You know, focus that is required
to really move yourself forward.

235
00:10:24,310 --> 00:10:24,520
All right.

236
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:25,660
That's all I wanted to cover today.

237
00:10:25,660 --> 00:10:26,200
So what have we got?

238
00:10:26,230 --> 00:10:27,550
Wish we've got outcomes.

239
00:10:27,580 --> 00:10:28,600
We've got obstacles tomorrow.

240
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,320
We're going to talk about the P the
final step in our four stage masterclass.

241
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:33,850
This is not super complex.

242
00:10:33,850 --> 00:10:35,950
This is relatively straightforward stuff.

243
00:10:36,010 --> 00:10:37,360
We just got to be reminded of it.

244
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,620
We've got to do it regularly.

245
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,770
It's the old saying, you know,
like, you know, we, we brush

246
00:10:41,770 --> 00:10:42,880
our teeth every day, right?

247
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,040
We don't brush our teeth once and
say, well, I'm glad that's done.

248
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,090
I don't have to do it again.

249
00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:48,760
We don't have a shower once
or a bath and say, well, I'll

250
00:10:48,790 --> 00:10:49,930
never have to do that again.

251
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,910
There are some things
we need to do every day.

252
00:10:51,910 --> 00:10:54,939
And with our goal setting, with
our wish chasing with our dream

253
00:10:54,939 --> 00:10:58,990
building, we often need to do these
kinds of steps over and over again.

254
00:10:58,990 --> 00:11:00,700
What do I want, why do I want it?

255
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:01,840
What's going to stop me.

256
00:11:02,110 --> 00:11:03,460
Let's get clear on these things.

257
00:11:03,460 --> 00:11:07,210
Cause this kind of consciousness,
this kind of awareness of the

258
00:11:07,420 --> 00:11:09,490
mechanisms that drive our success.

259
00:11:10,210 --> 00:11:12,580
Or a huge part of the puzzle
that are gonna move us forward.

260
00:11:12,580 --> 00:11:13,720
