In this episode, Chris and Kevin dive into the power of focused goal-setting and why narrowing your attention to just one or two key objectives can significantly increase your chances of success. They explore how too many goals can lead to analysis paralysis and stalled progress, and why energy management—not just time—is essential to staying on track.

Drawing from research and real-world examples, including Warren Buffett’s famous goal-filtering method, they discuss how strategic prioritization, momentum-building, and even knowing which goals to put on the back burner can make all the difference. You’ll walk away with practical tools for cutting through the clutter, setting intentional goals, and actually achieving them.
