Be Intentional: Finishing What You Start with Chris Bailey

Episode Overview

  • Be intentional in choosing your goals rather than just adopting them.
  • Understand and align your actions with your core values for meaningful goal attainment.

"Don't just adopt goals, choose them."
How do individuals turn their lives around after addiction? In this episode of The One You Feed, Eric Zimmer sits down with Chris Bailey to discuss how being intentional can help you finish what you start. Chris Bailey, an acclaimed productivity expert, brings a wealth of knowledge on how to align your actions with your core values to achieve meaningful goals.
You'll hear about intriguing concepts like the 'intention stack' and 'sepia-toned goals,' which are essential for creating a more purposeful life. Chris shares practical tools for balancing planning with action and editing goals to better fit personal values. They explore how our intentions shape our productivity and the importance of being deliberate in our choices. With a mix of humour and insight, the conversation navigates the complexities of motivation and the science behind setting and achieving goals.
The episode also touches on the common pitfalls in goal-setting, such as falling into the trap of sepia-toned goals—those that look appealing in theory but are unsustainable in practice. Chris and Eric offer advice on how to avoid these traps by being more intentional and reflective about your priorities. Whether you're looking to make a change or just curious about how to be more intentional in your everyday life, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
So, are you ready to feed your good wolf and make those intentions count?
