Why Your Goals Will Fail, and What You Can Do About It We make well-intentioned goals, with the false belief that we just lack commitment and motivation; that all we need is a good kick in the ass to get us going. This couldn't be farther from the truth, so please stop being so hard on yourself. There are better ways to achieve your full potential, with minimal headache.
First, realize that the key to success at pretty much everything comes down to creating productive habits. A habit is defined as a behavior that happens almost involuntarily. I define "productive habits" as behavior that get you what you want in life automatically, without you really trying.
But productive habits don't just appear out of thin air. They are created by assembling a chain of individual behaviors, like a string of pearls. These individual behaviors, over time, change our daily actions and in turn, our lives. Productive habits move us to our full potential, morph us into the people we want to become, and ultimately give us the life we want.
There are three steps to forming productive habits:

Work WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWhat PwC Learned from Its Policy of Flexible Work for Everyone When it comes to flexible workplace policies, the key is to actually be flexible. It seems counterintuitive, but having rules in place can work against you. Thats why PricewaterhouseCoopers instilled a policy they loosely call everyday flexibility. It isnt something the company mandates that all teams adopt; its a mentality and a way of life that is meant to be individualized for each person. The key is understanding that its impossible to have a one-size-fits-all approach to flexibility. Every employee, at any age, benefits from and is looking for its availability. Flexibility for a caregiver might mean being able to leave work early to take an elderly parent to a doctors appointment. For a parent, it might mean taking a midday run, so evenings can be spent with their children. And for others, it could simply be taking an hour in the afternoon to go to a yoga class and recharge. So, make sure that internal communications about flexibility speak to all employees. Remember, if you trusted an individual enough to hire them, you also should trust them enough to get work done when and where they prefer.
