Goals DO Come True with Doug Bennett

Doug interviews Ang Allan-Burns a fellow podcaster, Amazon #1 bestselling author of "Do I Really Hate Men?" and expert life coach. Ang shares her thoughts on goal setting, relationship dynamics, and personal growth after divorce. From discussing the importance of shared values in relationships to revealing how redundancy became a blessing in disguise, Ang offers valuable thoughts for anyone else navigating life transitions. Ang's practical approach to goal setting, combined with her personal experiences and professional expertise, makes this a must listen for those seeking to create positive change in their lives.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Goal setting should include both personal and professional aspects of life, for example many entrepreneurs succeed in business but neglect personal goals, leading to an imbalance.
• Core values identification is crucial for relationship success as misaligned values between partners often contribute to relationship breakdown.
• Visual reminders of goals are really powerful, placing goals in multiple locations and using phone screensavers can help maintain focus and motivation.
• Recovery from divorce requires self-work first. Seeking others to "fix" you without healing yourself first often leads to continued pain.
• Small, manageable changes are more effective than overwhelming transformations so start with simple daily improvements rather than major life overhauls.
• Regular goal review and adjustment is essential, reviewing goals quarterly allows for adaptation and ensures they remain relevant to your life.
• Teaching goal setting to children creates valuable life skills. Involving kids in goal setting helps them develop positive life habits early.
• Negative thought management is crucial for moving forward, learning to control and replace negative thoughts with positive ones enables progress.

BEST MOMENTS

"I always say to people that the goals that you have are not as important as the person that you become in pursuit of those goals."

"The book came about because I started to write about my divorce and the things that had happened and I wasn't writing for it to be published."

"We need to learn how to manage our negative thoughts, when you actually sit down and think about how many negative thoughts you have during a day it's quite a lot, even if you're just having a normal day."

"I say to people if you're not happy, move, we're not a tree, we're something different."

"The biggest journey of our life is our life, but we don't necessarily have a plan for it."
