In this episode of the Rachel Hollis podcast, Rachel shares her personal journey from being overwhelmed by multiple goals to discovering the power of focused goal setting. She reflects on her early struggles with achieving her dreams and how shifting her strategy to concentrating on one goal at a time significantly changed her results. Rachel shares insights from her career evolution, starting from a wedding and event planner to becoming a successful author and the founder of Start Today. She discusses the importance of writing down goals as if they have already happened, which helped her visualize and achieve them more effectively. Rachel introduces the Start Today journal, explaining its conception from her desire to solve a personal problem and how it evolved into a widely loved tool for goal setting and gratitude practice. She emphasizes that Start Today is more than a journal; it's a practice of ownership over one's life through gratitude, goal setting, and daily actions towards becoming who you want to be.
