S.M.A.R.T. Goals Are Stupid

I'm about to make life coaches mad at me. Smart goals? I think they're stupid. And I've tried them. Specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound. Sounds great on paper. But two of those letters are killing your dreams before you even start. If you know you can achieve it, your goal is too small. If it feels realistic, you're not thinking big enough. I break down why big ass goals beat smart goals every time and why science backs up going bigger than you think possible. Featured Story I used to be just like everyone else. Read all the books. Watched all the videos. Tried every framework and acronym some guy like me made up. Smart goals included. I dove right in because I'm that person. You tell me to do it, I'll go do it. But something didn't add up. When I weighed myself every morning (before the BCI—body crap index), I could measure progress. But the goals that actually changed my life? They were never realistic or achievable when I started. This podcast wasn't realistic 20 years ago. I couldn't even see what it would become. The goals that fire you up make everyone around you wonder what you're thinking. Plot twist: You're wondering the same thing. Important Points You're hardwired for goal setting—your eyes triangulate targets with every step you take, making you a natural goal-setting machine. If you know you can achieve a goal, it's not really a goal—it's a to-do item, and your dreams deserve bigger than that. Your mind achieves goals the moment you set them, which is why they get hard to finish—you've already arrived in your head. Memorable Quotes "If you know you can do it, that's not really a goal. That's a to-do thing, right?" "The best goals in the world, the ones that really fire you up, everybody around you is like, what are you thinking, right?" "Big ass goals need to be a little bigger than you." Scott's Three-Step Approach Make it specific and measurable—if you can't see it clearly and track progress, you're setting yourself up to drift. Ditch achievable and realistic—the person you need to be to reach your goal doesn't exist yet, so stop playing small. Go big enough that you can't not do it—when a goal excites you so much you'll figure it out no matter what, you've found the sweet spot.

December brings those annual bad habits back for about six weeks. You know the ones. I sat on the couch all day after a neighbor's wine party and had one word: incompatible. Not sustainable. Compatible. That's the question that changes everything about your habits. You already know what you should be doing. I walk you through my Good Habit Generator process that makes it actually happen. Short list. Pick one. Do it today. Layer in the rest. Simple stuff that works when life gets complicated. Featured Story My neighbor threw a wine party on Saturday night. I like good wine. And I almost never drink during the year. So I went. Had a glass. Maybe more because people kept topping me off. Cookies, chicken wings, pigs in a blanket, Swedish meatballs. All of it. Sunday morning I woke up with one word in my head: incompatible. Fun? Absolutely. But completely incompatible with what I want. I know because I spent the entire day on the freaking couch doing nothing. That one word has become huge in my coaching. Not is it sustainable, but is it compatible with your life? Important Points Every single action or inaction in your life creates a result, even doing nothing changes things. You already know your bad habits and good habits, the problem is making them fit your actual life. Compatible beats sustainable as the question to ask about your habits and choices. Memorable Quotes "Is it compatible or is it incompatible with your life?" "Everything you do in your life is a result of an action or an inaction." "If you do what you'd like to do and if you do it every single day, your life is going to be happier." Scott's Three-Step Approach Make a short list of one to three good habits you know will improve your life right now. Choose one single habit from your list and do it today, then repeat it tomorrow no matter what. Layer in the other habits from your list day by day without overwhelming yourself with too much too fast.

You know what you want. You're clear on that now. But you just don't know how to get there. You need the map, right? Most people want me to tell them exactly how to get from here to there. And honestly? You need a bridge. Not a vision board. Not a prayer. A real foundation on both sides with a solid plan connecting them. I share the Hoover Dam story that changed how I think about building anything in life — whether it's a new business, a relationship, or chasing a passion you can't shake. The secret isn't knowing exactly where you're going. It's building a peaceful base where you are right now, drafting where you want to go, and constructing the roadmap to get there. If you've been freaking out because life is messy or you spent your last credit card dollar on a course promising billions in 30 days, this episode brings you back to earth. Featured Story Years ago I was standing on top of the Hoover Dam. Pretty awe-inspiring. One of the biggest engineering marvels in history. But something else caught my attention. The new bridge going up high above the canyon. They were building a bypass, which made total sense to me. Why drive cars and semi-trucks over a dam holding billions of gallons of water? But I grew up in the seventies. Most of what we did then made no sense. As I watched that bridge construction, I realized something. The process was identical to getting what I wanted in life. Foundation on one side. Foundation on the other side. Build the span between them. That's how you cross any canyon. Important Points Most people know what they want after gaining clarity, but they just don't know how to get there — you need a bridge with foundations on both sides. Build a peaceful present base first before chasing the future, which means getting bills paid, relationships solid, and feeling strong where you are today. You can't know exactly where you're going until you start because you've never been there before — anyone who claims otherwise is lying to you. Memorable Quotes "God's got a plan for you, but he gave you free will. He's like, okay, here's the big plan. Here's the secret. I'm not going to tell you what it is or when it's going to happen." "I am not arrogant enough to think that I can head off in a direction of doing something I've never done before and know exactly how I'm going to get there." "How many times have you spent your last money on a credit card and you got to make a billion dollars in 30 days or it's not going to work for you? It doesn't work." Scott's Three-Step Approach Build your peaceful present base. Get bills paid, relationships solid, and everything settled where you are right now before charging into the future. Draft your peaceful future base. Take classes, get certifications, expand your network — start building the other side even though it's just a draft. Construct the bridge between them. Create your roadmap, your steps, your framework that gets you from here to there without falling into the river.

You've heard it before: listen twice as much as you speak. Two ears, one mouth. Makes sense, right? But I'm taking that advice to a whole different level. Because most people are so busy listening to everyone else — to Google, to AI, to social media, to the noise — that they've stopped listening to themselves. They can't move forward without social approval. They don't trust their own wisdom. They've lost permission to listen to what their heart is saying. I introduce the concept of "going dark" — choosing to listen to others less and listen to yourself more. Not ignoring the world, but giving yourself space to think, to ponder, to ask "what would I do?" If you're feeling stuck or down, it's probably because you haven't stopped to listen to yourself. This episode changes that. Featured Story I've got the gift of gab. Always have. As a kid, I was energetic, enthusiastic, excitable. My mouth got me into lots of problems. Then I learned to use it to get myself out of those problems too. But somewhere along the way, smart people taught me to listen twice as much as I speak. When I got into coaching, I became a really good listener. Kept my mouth shut. Paid attention. Then I learned something else. I needed to listen to myself too. To my own wisdom. To what my heart was telling me. I started using what I call "Scott logic." Asking "what would Scott do?" Not in an arrogant way, but as an accumulation of all the wisdom I've gathered over the years. That's when everything changed. Important Points You have two ears and one mouth for a reason, but most people listen to everyone else so much they've stopped listening to themselves. Going dark means giving yourself space to listen to your own wisdom twice as much as you listen to others around you. When you stop listening to what your heart is telling you, that's usually when you start feeling stuck or down in life. Memorable Quotes "Going dark means life is brighter. It means good stuff is about to happen." "We've lost permission to listen to ourselves and to do for ourselves. It's like we can't move forward without social approval of those around us." "If I didn't absolutely know where I stood, I didn't know what my values were and what was really important to me, I had no business talking to anybody else." Scott's Three-Step Approach Shut your mouth and pay attention to the world. Listen to others, be caring, interact — but don't just talk to fill the space. Listen to yourself twice as much as anyone else. Take time to think, ponder, and ask yourself what you really believe about the situation. Know where you stand before speaking. Get clear on your values and what's important to you, then operate from that place.

You set a goal. You write it down. You're ready to go. Then life blows you off course. Your boss keeps you busy. Your spouse questions your plans. Your kids need you. And suddenly you're nowhere near where you wanted to be. Sound familiar? Pilots deal with this every single flight. The wind blows them off course, so they course correct. They crab into the wind. They adjust their heading. And they still arrive at their destination for that $375 hamburger. I break down why you need to stop expecting a straight path, start planning for the winds of life, and master the art of course correction. Plus, why the Krispy Kreme hot donut sign is the perfect metaphor for goal achievement. If you've been frustrated that life keeps getting in your way, this changes how you think about reaching your goals. Featured Story I live in Daytona Beach. We've got airplanes everywhere. Flight schools, banner towers, the whole deal. And when you look up, those airplanes are flying crooked. The nose is pointed off to the side because the wind is blowing from the west. Looks scary, right? But the pilot knows exactly what they're doing. They've set their course for Georgia, and if they don't correct for that western wind, they'll end up in Bermuda instead of getting that hamburger. So they crab into the wind. They course correct. They adjust their heading. That's how you hit your goals too. Life's going to blow you off course. Plan for it. Important Points The winds of life will always blow you off course — your boss, your spouse, your kids, your responsibilities — so stop expecting a straight path to your goals. Course correction is the skill you need, just like pilots do when wind pushes them sideways — adjust your heading and keep moving toward your destination. If your goal isn't sufficiently motivating (like a hot Krispy Kreme sign), you won't bother to wind correct at all and you'll end up somewhere else entirely. Memorable Quotes "The winds are going to blow. Life is not going to get easier. It was never designed to be easy." "You probably didn't think about it, but you thought that I set my goal, I'm going to go do it. But suddenly the winds blow you off course, and you can't figure out why you're not getting there." "If that donut sign is not on, if the goal is not sufficiently motivating, I am not going to wind correct at all. I'm going to end up somewhere else." Scott's Three-Step Approach Set a goal that's big and exciting enough. Make it so compelling that you'll actually do the work to course correct when life gets messy. Expect the winds to blow you off course. Your boss, spouse, kids, and responsibilities will push you sideways — that's just life, so plan for it. Master the art of course correction. Like a pilot adjusting their heading into the wind, keep making small corrections that get you back on track.

The Law of Attraction isn't some mystical secret. It's actually dead simple: know what you want, believe you can get it, and get your ass to work. Three steps. That's it. So why does it fail for most people? Because they're focusing on the wrong thing. They're thinking about what they don't want instead of what they do want. They're maintaining vision boards without taking action. They're journaling about dreams without making them real. I break down why the Law of Attraction is really just the Law of What You Think About Most, share a story about divorced women who can't stop listing what they don't want, and reveal the Harley Davidson vision board disaster. If you've been wishing and hoping instead of believing and doing, this episode is your wake-up call. Featured Story I work with a lot of divorced people. Men and women going through transitions, looking for what's next. And every single time I ask a divorced woman what she wants in her next man, you know what she says? "I'll tell you what I don't want." Then she goes off for ten minutes. I could make coffee, pet my dog, throw the ball, come back — she's still listing what she doesn't want. What's happening? She's focused on the past. The bad stuff. What didn't work. So guess what she's attracting more of? That's the Law of Attraction at work. You get what you focus on. Every single time. Important Points The Law of Attraction boils down to three things: know specifically what you want, believe you can make it happen, and take massive imperfect action. Most people fail because they focus on what they don't want instead of what they do want, keeping themselves stuck in the past. Vision boards and goal lists are useless if you never take action — stop wishing and hoping, start believing and doing. Memorable Quotes "Know specifically what you want, believe you can go get it, not you deserve it, believe you can make it happen and get to work." "You get what you focus on. You ever wonder why somebody you know gets married, gets divorced, gets married, gets divorced to the same guy?" "He was so busy on his vision board, he forgot to go live the vision." Scott's Three-Step Approach Get clear on what you want, not what you don't want. Stop focusing on the past failures and start describing your ideal future in specific terms. Believe you can make it happen through action. Not because you deserve it, but because you're willing to do the work to get it. Take action today, not tomorrow. Pick one thing from your vision board or goal list and go do it right now. Chapter Notes 00:00 - Why the Law of Attraction fails for most people 04:20 - The divorced woman's attraction trap revealed 08:45 - Vision boards that never become reality 11:30 - The Harley Davidson dealership lesson 14:15 - Daily journaling versus daily awareness practice 16:40 - Making your future real today, not tomorrow 18:25 - Three steps to attraction that actually works Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify Email: [email protected] Main Website: https://motivationtomove.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/dailyboostpodcast Instagram: @heyscottsmith Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/motivationtomove Facebook Group: https://dailyboostpodcast.com/facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

Ever ask someone to hold you accountable, only to get annoyed when they actually do it? Yeah, I've seen that pattern destroy more goals than I can count. And that whole "announce your goals publicly" advice? That might be setting you up for failure. Because accountability isn't about crowdsourcing support from people who barely know you. It's about something way more powerful. I share why the best accountability partner you'll ever have is staring back at you in the mirror, plus the one type of accountability relationship that actually works. If you've been spinning your wheels with accountability buddies who let you off the hook, this episode changes everything. Featured Story I was talking to these ladies about their walking buddy system. Six o'clock every morning, they'd get each other out of bed. Great plan, right? I asked them what happens when the walking buddy doesn't show up. Maybe overslept. Maybe their kid's sick. Doesn't matter why. Most people? They'll sit down with coffee and a donut instead of walking solo. But the ones who say "I'm doing this whether you show up or not" — they'll be miles ahead. They become the boss of themselves. They stop depending on someone else to make them move. That's when accountability actually works. Important Points Crowdsourcing accountability on Facebook or to casual acquaintances puts pressure on everyone and rarely works for long-term goals. The most powerful accountability skill you have is taking responsibility for yourself and showing up whether your accountability partner does or not. Real accountability partnerships work when they're based on respect and sincere connection, and you empower that person to actually do their job. Memorable Quotes "You're the boss of you. You can tell yourself what to do. You can tell yourself not to do it." "Nobody trusts you and respects you more than you do. Nobody will be willing to call you out more than you will." "Life is difficult. Life gets in the way. Life is not easy. And if it is easy today, it won't be easy tomorrow or maybe next month or maybe next year." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept you're the boss of yourself. Stop waiting for someone else to make you do what you already know needs doing. Choose accountability partners wisely. Find people who know you well, respect you, and will call you out when you're making excuses. Empower them to do their job. Give them permission to hold you accountable without beating them up when they do.

You're getting distracted and you don't even know it. Your attention gets grabbed, you become interested, and suddenly you're doing things that weren't on your plan. I'm going to walk you through two advertising principles that explain exactly how this happens. One shows how your mind naturally works. The other shows where you are right now. Understanding these will change how you move through your day. You'll see why you drift off course and how to use your own brain to stay focused on what actually matters. Featured Story The other day I was driving and the red lights came on my dash. Temperature dropped to 31 degrees here in Florida. I became acutely aware that I had a problem. Low tire pressure. So now I'm thinking about where to get free air. Because free air is hard to find these days. But I know one place that has it. That's the whole process right there. I went from completely unaware to taking action because I understood exactly where I was in the awareness stages. Important Points Your attention gets grabbed all day long by bosses, friends, and advertisers using the AIDA model—they get your attention, build your interest, create desire, and move you to action before you realize what happened. You can be in one of five awareness stages right now: completely unaware of your problem, aware something's wrong, looking for solutions, knowing which product or person can help, or actively implementing solutions across your whole life. The same mental process that distracts you can work for your benefit when you deliberately use it to grab your own attention and stay interested in what moves you toward your big-ass goal. Memorable Quotes "Something's going to get your attention today, and after that, you're going to become interested. You're going to go, oh, what's that?" "You can be interested and desire things that maybe aren't good for you or maybe take you totally off track, and now you find yourself going down that road instead of the other road you wanted to go down." "It's built into your brain. It'll make you sane." Scott's Three-Step Approach Track your awareness level daily by asking yourself what's grabbing your attention and whether those things align with where you want to go instead of drifting through your day on autopilot. Identify which awareness stage you're in for each area of your life—are you unaware, problem aware, solution aware, product aware, or most aware—so you know exactly what you need next. Deliberately use the AIDA model for yourself by choosing what gets your attention, staying interested in things that matter, building desire for your actual goals, and taking action on your terms.

It's the end of the year and you're thinking about what's next. But here's what most people get wrong about goals. I'm not talking about those 10-year vision things or tiny incremental goals. I'm talking about something so big it changes how you live right now. A goal that's actually worth your time has to grab your attention and redirect your entire day. And you don't build to it over months or years. You start living it today. Featured Story I just got off my 7 a.m. Wednesday morning call with my inner circle. Two years ago, I would've hated that idea. But this group? They're doing the work. We spent the whole call talking about what it means to set a goal that's actually big enough to matter. The holiday chaos is happening. We're all wrapping up the year, buying presents, eating too much, dealing with everything. But underneath all that noise, we're thinking about next year. And the question isn't just "what do I want?" It's "what am I willing to live right now?" Important Points Your big-ass goal isn't about your career or your health or your relationships separately—it's the whole picture of the life you want to live, and everything else has to support that vision. If your goal doesn't grab your attention and run with it, it's not big enough, because a real goal directs everything you do instead of waiting for leftover minutes at the end of your day. You don't build to your goal over time—you start living it today by doing only the actions that align with who you're trying to become, even if it's not perfect yet. Memorable Quotes "A goal so big that you see yourself living it today, even though it's not exactly what you want it to be, but you know you're on your way because you're doing it every day anyway." "I know you don't know, but if you did, what would it be? In that moment, hope and inspiration arrive. And that feeling arrives." "You might not know what to call it, you might not know exactly what it looks like. You don't even know how to spell it, man. You know what it feels like." Scott's Three-Step Approach Define your big-ass goal as the complete picture of the life you want—not divided into categories, but as one integrated vision that includes your career, relationships, health, and impact on the world. Make your goal big enough that it demands your attention every single day and start living it immediately instead of building a plan to get there eventually. Simplify everything else in your life by clearing out the clutter and complications that keep you from living in your goal right now.

Ever meet someone who wants to be great at something but has no idea where to start? That was me in a sauna on Thanksgiving morning, talking to a young guy who wanted to be a motivational speaker. He had the passion but zero clue about the path forward. Sound familiar? I shared a classic Zig Ziglar lesson about the stages of competence that changed my life years ago. Turns out, knowing what stage you're in makes all the difference. Because you can't get where you're going if you don't know where you are. Featured Story Thanksgiving morning. My wife kicked me out of the kitchen, so I hit the gym. After my workout, I headed to the sauna. Young guy in there, polite enough to get off his phone. We started talking. He's a locksmith, but what he really wants? To be a motivational speaker. Problem is, he had no idea how to get there. No content. No roadmap. Just the desire and some friends who said he pumped them up. I've been there. I've done 12,000 podcasts. I knew exactly where he was stuck. So I spent the next 20 minutes in a hot sauna walking him through the stages every beginner goes through. We talked until our heart rates went crazy and we had to bail. I'll probably never see him again. But I got to do what someone once did for me. Pass it forward. Important Points You don't know what you don't know when you start something new, and that's perfectly normal—everyone around you gets it, even if you feel like a dummy. Admitting "I have no idea what I'm doing" changed everything for me, and it'll change things for you too because pretending to know blocks real learning. The final stage isn't just being competent yourself—it's recognizing and developing the unconscious competence in others, which is where real impact happens. Memorable Quotes "You cannot replace experience. You just can't." "Some of the best motivation I've ever had in my life, I did not like the person when they delivered that lesson." "The ability to recognize and develop the unconscious competence of others." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept that you're an unconscious incompetent when starting anything new, and embrace that stage instead of pretending you know more than you do. Move to conscious incompetence by admitting what you don't know, which opens the door to real learning and removes the pressure of having all the answers. Work toward conscious competence where you know you're good, then use that knowledge to help others recognize their own unconscious competence.
