Ever wonder why some people effortlessly accomplish their goals while others struggle? 

The latest episode of Practice Freedom journeys into setting effective goals and receiving feedback within healthcare practices. We discuss the significance of establishing feasible objectives based on future predictions, providing a realistic measure for the gap between expectations and their manifestation. Along the line, we illuminate the concept of feedback loops and their critical role when measured in one-year cycles. 

We explore the role of feedback in our daily lives by drawing inspiration from Steven Kotler’s work around flow and rapid feedback. We debate how it shapes our understanding of situations, facilitates appropriate responses, and propels us into hyper-efficiency and happiness. Using the metaphor of skiing or snowboarding down a mountain, we explore the freedom of understanding that there's no absolute right or wrong way to set goals. Lastly, we challenge the conventional wisdom around rightness and wrongness, encouraging a focus on learning and feedback from our leadership team and peers, serving as a compass guiding us to our truth and goal attainment.

Tune in to grasp the art of goal setting and the crucial role of feedback.
