Whose goals, exactly, are you chasing? There's an old story about a dog who chases cars. Every day he runs out of the house barking, chasing cars that go past. Of course, he never catches them. The cars are much too fast for this poor old dog. But one day, the owner asks an important question:

"What do you think he would do if he actually caught one?"

… to which nobody had an answer.

Why are you chasing English?

This is an important question because it tells us all goals must have something at the end of them. Often we get caught up in chasing goals that really don't have any meaning attached to them. We are chasing the goal… But at the end of the day, we're not really too sure why. And if we do complete them? So what? We’re not sure what we’re going to actually do with it now.

Chasing Other People’s Dreams

A good example of this is chasing other peoples' dreams. An obvious example being people whose parents tell them they must learn English... so that's what they try to do. But they’re not really sure for themselves why they need English.

Yes, I’ve done it too...

I’ve fallen into the same trap. A while ago, my coach and mentor asked me, "Julian, whose goals are you chasing?" At the time I thought I was heading in the right direction… but when I thought about it, the goal that I was chasing (to get a million subscribers on YouTube) actually meant nothing to me. At the end of the day, I don't care about those numbers. Ultimately I'm not interested in a business with hundreds and thousands of clients all over the place, and I just don't work well like that. I work best with a very small number of people, working together with them very, very closely. So it’s better for me to set goals that MATCH that.

What are you trying to do?

So ask yourself this question, "What exactly is it that I am trying to accomplish with English?”

It’s imperative you understand that.

Otherwise, you’re just going to waste time chasing cars that, at the end of the day, you don’t really want to catch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILMrlYVHx4c
