Traditionally, a “goal manager” was a person hired by an organization to help ensure that company goals were met. This manager would oversee all operations to make sure all staff and faculty were operating in a way that would help the company achieve its’ goals.
Now, we’re using the term in a similar sense, but applying it to our personal lives.
Side note: there are a lot of things that companies and big corporations do in the business world that we should be applying and doing in our personal lives: using data, hiring goal managers, tracking KPIs, and so much more, but I’ll save that for another blog post!
Anyway, my job as your goal manager is simple: to ensure that you reach your goals.
How can I “ensure” this? Well, as your manager, I will be focused on three things and three things only: you, your current goal(s), and your progress, that’s it!
With this tunnel vision and focus, I’ll be able to study your daily actions, study how you’re feeling, review your progress, make adjustments (if needed), push you harder, encourage and motivate you accordingly, and hold you accountable. All of which will ensure that your goals are met!
I will accomplish all of this by studying your personal data. (If you work with me, you’ll be required to use our ‘ultimate accountability tracker,’ which I’ll use to make sure you’re taking frequent action and steps towards your goals).
Side note: if you hire me as your goal manager, it includes our accountability tracker, our analytic services, and coaching services to ensure you meet your goal(s)!
I’ll review your data and touch base with you at least once a week! This will help me manage and monitor your daily performance.
I’ll relay feedback after reviewing your data and let you know if you’re doing enough, doing a good job, or if you need to step it up! I’ll remind you of all the things you need to be doing in order to reach your goals and I’ll support and encourage you along the way! I’ll also celebrate with you! I want to celebrate each win and each time a milestone is reached, I want you to feel proud and accomplished and I’m so grateful I’ll be able to do this with you.
Then, once a month, we’ll do a bigger, more in-depth review where we’ll talk about how you’re feeling, how the process is going for you, we’ll review your data summary reports and go over any key findings together, I’ll give you my feedback, my thoughts, and my opinions and you can do the same, and we’ll plan for the following month!
Here’s an example of how it will work.
Say your goals are to be healthier; to exercise more, to read more, and to drink more water.
Then we’ll create a custom spreadsheet for you based on your goals = your ultimate accountability partner and you’ll fill and use this spreadsheet all day, every day. See below:
I’ll review these spreadsheets weekly to ensure you’re performing your daily healthy-habits consistently and will advise and encourage you accordingly.
Then, at the end of each month, my team and I will analyze the entire month’s worth of data for you and create a nice and easy-to-understand summary report which we’ll review together during our in-depth reviews. See the sample below of what will be on your report:
Your data + our analytical services + our goal management/ coaching services = a recipe for success!!!
Now, I’d like to briefly explain why I am so passionate about goals and why I want to help you reach yours. I love talking about goals, it’s my favorite thing to talk about. Growing up, and even till this day, I’ve always been extremely goal-oriented. I’m constantly setting and achieving really high goals for myself. To get on a deeper level, I think having goals is what saved my life. I went through an extremely difficult and depressing time from high school until my mid twenties and it’s my goals that kept my hope alive. My hope for a better and happier future and because of my background and experience I have extreme levels of drive, grit, focus, and discipline that I can and will use to help you reach your goals!
I truly hope we’ll have the chance to work together, but until then, happy tracking and best of luck while you pursue your goals!
