1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: What's up, everybody? This is the people shark Haired, Damon

2
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: John and I have another motivation moment for you courtesy

3
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 1: of that moment with Damon John, a production of The

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: Black Effect podcast network and iHeartRadio. Now check out this fact.

5
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: According to a study conducted by Dominican University, people who

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: wrote goals down made a plan, and most important, enlisted

7
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: friends to help them by sending regular progress reports succeeded

8
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: closer to seventy five percent of the time. Now, if

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: anybody knows me, I'm a huge advocate for goals and

10
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 1: goal reading. I read the same exact ten goals every

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:42,879
Speaker 1: night before I go to bed and every morning when

12
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 1: I wake up. And six of those goals expiring six months,

13
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: the other four expiring two years, five years, ten years,

14
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: and twenty years. But for the sake of this conversation

15
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: and this information to empower you, I suggest, whether your

16
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: goal is a six month goal or a year goal,

17
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: whether it's about using way to getting that new job,

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: or educating yourself or looking better doing whatever you want

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: to do, spending more time, getting healthier, I don't care

20
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 1: starting your new business. Write them down, but share them,

21
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: and you don't have to send them to friends the

22
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: traditional way, post them on Facebook, creative group, or maybe

23
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 1: it's just a text with a bunch of friends and

24
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: here's what's gonna happen. You can't take them back because

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 1: the minute that you want to step back, maybe fail,

26
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: you'll find where your true friends are. When I started

27
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: foolbl I close food with three times. But I have

28
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: three amazing partners that every time I wanted to quit,

29
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: they didn't allow me to quit. And every time they

30
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: want to quit, I didn't allow them to quit. And

31
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: guess what it's a good thing about. When you put

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: those goals out there, you also know who the haters are,

33
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: the people who say it can't be done. I've never

34
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: heard of about that, not in our family. You're gonna

35
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: embarrass yourself. You're gonna embarrass us because you want to

36
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: make sure you remember those who are not by your side,

37
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: and you want to remember all those who said you

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: can do it. How can I help you. I'll with

39
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: you because those people are the people that you want

40
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: to take in the next stage of your life. You

41
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: can't take everybody with you because you are out there

42
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: trying to set goals and supersede them. So make sure

43
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: you spend some time concentrating on those goals on that

44
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: north star you can't hit a target that you can see,

45
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: and share those with the people that you believe will

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: help you, and I promise you I will see you

47
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,800
