Goals are good for setting a direction, for giving you something to achieve. But systems are how you make progress. Goals are for the future. Systems give you something actionable and satisfying to do in the present.
Hey Derek, I've got to say, the Admiral Ackbar meme had me hooked right from the start β perfect trap analogy! π¬
I've been chasing my tail with goals too, often ending up feeling more like a hamster in a wheel than a trailblazer.
Your take on embracing systems over fixating on the endgame is enlightening. Itβs a mindset shift I'm in the process of implementing, and it's done wonders for my morning routine.
Thanks for the insightful read and the chuckle! πβ¨
Goal setting without a system to achieve that goal is for sure frustrating at best ! The trick is in the system and having this sorted so your goal is achieved!
I believe I am stage 2 when it comes to learning French π. Thanks for the thought provoking piece, made me realise I need to look at my systems a bit more when it comes to Substack actually.

Should stage 2 in the diagram and the text be "Conscious Incompetence"?
ACK! yes, I just fixed it for the post, but (sigh) the newsletter will be wrong. Thanks for the catch!
