This podcast episode discusses "Assumptive Goal Setting," a technique for setting more ambitious goals. The hosts explain a three-step process: 1) Don't start by reviewing current performance; 2) Assume the goal is already achieved; 3) Analyze what actions led to this imagined success. They illustrate this with an example of a goal to reduce a metric from 657 to zero, showing how this approach encourages creative problem-solving rather than incremental improvements. The episode emphasizes that this method helps overcome the feeling of being overwhelmed by the unknown future, leading to more significant achievements.
