Floors & Ceilings: the Goal-Setting Approach That Keeps You Moving All Year

If you’ve ever set a goal with total excitement — only to fall off track a few weeks later — you know the frustration. You’re not lazy. You’re not incapable. You just haven’t been shown a sustainable way to stay consistent with goals when real life kicks in.

Most of us set one high standard and try to hit it every single day. When we can’t, we feel behind. Then discouraged. Then tempted to quit altogether. That all-or-nothing cycle is exhausting.

In this episode, I share the “Floors & Ceilings” method — a simple goal-setting shift that removes the pressure of perfection while protecting your momentum. Instead of one rigid target, you create two levels of success. And that tiny adjustment can keep you moving forward all year long.

Because consistency isn’t about intensity. It’s about staying in the game.
