Welcome back to podcast. Today, we’re discussing the idea of broadcasting your objectives, a concept often touted for accountability. However, I believe this can lead to more harm than good.

I witnessed a team meeting where the General Manager excitedly shared the company’s year-long goals, promising a reward—a trip to the Queensland Gold Coast. Yet, the team’s lack of interest was palpable. They were more focused on immediate needs rather than distant objectives. This highlights a crucial truth: employees often prioritize short-term benefits over long-term goals.

In today’s competitive job market, sharing your business objectives can create unnecessary pressure. Instead of broadcasting these goals, focus on helping your team achieve their personal ambitions. When employees see their goals aligned with the company’s, they’re more likely to stay engaged and committed.

On a personal level, sharing ambitions broadly can backfire. A colleague once declared his intent to dominate the market, only to face backlash and isolation from competitors. The lesson? Keep your objectives close and share them only with trusted supporters.

In conclusion, whether in business or personal life, pursue your goals quietly and confidently. It’s not about how loudly you announce them but the determination with which you achieve them. Thanks for listening to [Podcast Name]! Until next time, keep striving for your best!

The podcast "Listen to Others – But Do As You Feel" explores the importance of trusting your instincts over external advice, particularly when navigating personal and professional journeys. Charles reflects on his experiences of seeking guidance from seemingly successful individuals, only to realise that not all advice is beneficial or sincere. They emphasise the significance of staying true to one's feelings and thoughts, even when faced with contrasting opinions. A central theme is the perception of success and how it affects people's views. The speaker observes that a quieter life often garners more positive remarks, while success can lead to jealousy and negative comments. Charles shares personal anecdotes, including a hurtful remark about his relationship with his wife Amy relationship, which they overcame by focusing on their happiness and the joy of their family. The podcast encourages listeners to view criticism and negativity as potential sources of motivation rather than deterrents. The speaker advocates for a mindset that embraces challenges and uses them as opportunities for growth. Ultimately, it's about living authentically and not allowing the judgments of others to dictate one's path. The message is clear: prioritise your aspirations and reactions over external perceptions, as what others think is ultimately none of your business.
