I bet you have many goals in life. I know I do.
It's good to have them.
But when you focus on your goals too much, you can actually decrease your chances of achieving them.
In this video I'll explain why that happens and why instead of focusing your goals, you should focus on creating a system.
The articles that inspired the video:

To translate this video from a different angle: To climb a mountain, don't look at the top -- just keep your head down and take one step at a time.
It's good to see that there are so many solution oriented people.
Don't you think it would also be good to be aware of the bigger picture?
Our current challenge leads toward a world government, a world order.
Our challenge is to prevent a world of total control that for the most part is already a reality.
What are your suggestions?
How can we prevent a world of total control?
To put another way...
_"Nobody trips over a mountain, it's the small pebbles that make you stumble. Pass all of the pebbles in your path and you will find that you have crossed the mountain."_ - Unknown
The journey of thousand miles begins with a single step.
To simply put it, focus on the process not the result.
1. Set a direction, where you want to go
2. Ask good questions about how to get there
3. Apply the answers you've got and readjust as needed.
So helpful

Adjusting is very important. After you know more, your direction changes. This is similar to how a machine learns also.
In Machine Learning topic (an AI branch), to make the machine smarter, the machine makes a small move into the direction that it thinks is the fastest direction to get to the goal.
But because the machine has a very narrow field of view, the direction will usually be wrong. But it's not a problem. The machine makes the small move again into the adjusted direction. Repeat this often enough and it will eventually reach the goal.
This algorithm is called gradient descent. It's like when you are trying to go down hill, but you don't see the entire hill, just go down the steepest direction you see until you reach the bottom.
Well said!

Very Important part of every system, that most people forget to include:
Do something fun between the work!
Drink a tea, meditate 2 minutes, listen to a song...

I really hate goals, because they are outcome focused, and you can't get any fulfillment from that mindset, they could be good for being focus only and don't lose your sight, but the process should be your main priority.
Yes goals are outcome focused, but sometimes you need to focus on the outcome to get you through the process. Easy example, i love french onion soup, i hate cutting the onions to make.
On a more important note. Art degrees, my school had life studies(drawing from real life naked models) as a requirment for all the art majors. I, the asexual virgin that i was, put it off lile the plague until i seriously had to in order to graduate. And it was the exact hell i thought it would be. My friend who was only embarrased got over it after a month or so. But i suffered the entire time, doing everything in my power to stay behind the models or focusing on their upper body. It was gross and disgusting and i hope to never again be alone in a room with a naked stranger for several hours. It was a hell i dont wish upon most of my enemies, but i had to focus on passing and graduating or else i would start remembering what i was doing. I passed but safe to say it was my second to worst grade besides advertising design which was a creative conflict i had with the teacher, not lack of skill or desire to grow. But i digress
Overtime everyone gets bored of working towards their goal. The key is to stay disciplined!
Well said :)😉
This should be taught at schools.
Instead they teach that the Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
This is awesome! I would concentrate on systems as a child but once I joined medical school the final exam that was held once a year and the knowledge required to eventually become an efficient Doctor became my ultimate goal and I trailed of to a path of not being happy with what I was doing because I could never meet my own expectations and eventually developed anxiety for exams and thought of myself as a loser who could not gain enough knowledge to become an efficient Doctor and was diagnosed with Depression in my third year of medical school. When I was feeling better with medication and therapy and reflected upon what I was going wrong I realised that unlike childhood i did not have systems , I was fixating on the ultimate goal which was to be reached through systems the importance of which I had completely forgotten. Now I am slowly getting back on track and your channel helps me a lot with my journey back to normalcy. Thank you ❤️
I faced a similar problem in college days as well! Now I have figured out where it went wrong. I was not having an efficient system unlike my school days. I think now this knowledge will brighten my future
@@kamalbhaizan When we were young and in school didn't know about such concepts but still did it right. Children are such, adults unnecessarily complicate stuff. Hope things get better for you. Good luck!
Feeling exactly the same. I have been suffering depression and performance anxiety for years. I have just have a major failure and I think I would use some of these knowledge to get back on the saddle and focus on the processes to get what I want.

Love this line!
I got the idea form this book
'how to fail at almost everything and still win big' by Scott adams btw great video 😍😍😍
‘It doesn’t matter what we want, Once we get it we want something else.’
Thank you so much for this video! In fact, I always used to feel bad for not having enough goals, when in fact, I do have systems for several areas of my life, such as money, health, etc.
These systems do help me to achieve things. So, they can't be all that bad. 🙂

thank you. you should be having millions of subscribers because everyone deserves to know this. You can actually make the world more successful. thanks again.
Each one of your latest videos is an eye-opener. I can't thank you enough for what you're doing! Just keep safe and take care of yourself during this pandemic, wherever you are.
You might have the best self-help channel on UA-cam. Your perspectives are constantly blowing my mind!
This channel is amazing..... Literally "Changing lives".....
I feel so grateful to your chanel for keep pushing me and my friends, and it really working. Keep doing it! We love you!!
you are so right! whenever I get stuck on the thought that I am not yet where I want to be, I can start feeling so down.. the process and the systems are the key :) thanks for the much needed reminder
One of the best examples, in this case, is learning a language. When you only focus on the goal probably you give up other important language's skills, therefore it's significant to forge the system which it'll be fit to yourself.
I truly found this inspiring. I have been struggling to find the motivation to pursue my goals recently and as a result started feeling down and disappointed in myself. Then I watched this and followed it up with the two second rule video. I have to say a massive thank you, because i feel like the penny has just dropped and i remembered how I achieved all my other goals. Thank you
I really love your videos ! They're really inspiring for me and make me thinking seriously about what I want in my life... At the beginning of the quarantine, I was like : "Oh, fine, let's play some video games all day and watch Netflix during night." But I saw a video of your channel, and another one, and another one and so on...
Now I'm doing 2 hours of sport everyday, then I play the music (my dream is to be a singer) and I work on different tasks I planned for the day.
I just wanted to say Thank You for all your videos that are really inspiring and simple to understand :D !
In all of your videos, you provide the practical steps we can easily follow to be 'Better Than Yesterday'. Thanks and keep going.
Scott Adams is a big part of systems over goals. Thanks for your hard work :-)
Great insight! I too have found that a system takes a great while to build. It's important to keep at it and constantly adjust along the way. Also, some systems only work short-term, but that's okay too, because they still got you some work done.
BTY I cannot agree more how important it is to really work on the process rather than the result! Nice work presenting the idea, definitely will keep building and maintaining my systems/processes. Thanks for helping us all to become better than yesterday. Cheers!
Ive already come across this from another source but theres something special about how you lay down the information that i noticed is much easier to grab and digest. Keep it up!
Thanks man great job again. This is exactly what I needed as I've been struggling for 4 months with this issue.
Man u cant imagine how i love u ❤️ i watched a video that u are talking about how to do hard things before a week i see a lot change and today i watched this beautiful one ❤️❤️ thank you so much wish to see one time talking about how to set up high goals and dreams and much more

Yet, somehow, your teachings are so good
Great knowledge
Summary
Goal. Vs. System
System is very useful as it create not any burden like goal does
Three ways to achieve a good system.
1 Decide your target
2. Ask question how to get their
3.Apply and keep improving your system. Find solution of every problem
I wanna be part of skillshare but I'm a broke teen. Great video as always! Love itt
goddamit dani this hits straight in the heart! This is exactly how I'm like everytime a youtuber recommends skillshare. #brokeTeensSquad
@@yeswecan1843 😂
i have read the book "atomic habits" and it covers the same topic of system over goals. althoug i read it i never really deepened my thoughts on this and today i really grasped how important it is to have a more prominent system over a goal
This has reinforced my plans and my vision for my future. I had some doubts but this video ironed out them. Thanks a lot
Nice video!
I guess goals are most important in helping you to keep up with your system. For me, motivation is a big factor that keeps me focused.
You always get me up when am down with your videos thanks
I love your channel man you’re so insightful
This video is very important. Whenever I have set goals I feel this has hit me, but no one was talking about it.
I liked the video before watching. Very happy someone is spreading the word on this great concept!
I really needed this video. Thank you.
I had heard of this before but you explained it more clearly. Thank you this helped.
Really nice video.... this is so true! Focus on the process and stay consistent, then the goal will take care of itself.
You really deserve 10 millions subscribers
You're a hero mate. Great content! And a free 2 months to Skill Share. Thank you thank you thank you!!
this channel is changing my life ❤️
I am suffering too long thanks for this your a great man
Great content, beautifully explained.
" Winners and losers have the same goals.” ― James Clear, Atomic Habits. Popular quote missed the point, without goal there wouldn't be play in first place, let alone win/loss. Goal that can not drive a person, is not goal at all, it is more of random wish.
Always enjoy these videos
A huge fan of yours. You motivate me to start my own youtube journey out.purelife. thanks for the motivation
Essentially, systems (become) your goals. Thanks for sharing this enlightening perspective and please keep shining!
Victory is yours,

Thank you for your videos! I am having a hard time focusing in my work at home during the quarantine. Your channel is encouraging and helping me to be better than yesterday. Salamat!! Love from the Philippines!
Putanginamo
whooaaa, mind blowing. It is so common sense, yet I could not see it. Thank you, Sir!!
Thanks for this.
The $100,000 example hit home for me. I earned my Master's Degree in February. The achievement of a 30 year-old-goal!! But a few weeks after I got the diploma I felt lost because I didn't know what to do with myself. I didn't have a system.
I have pickup back up a book project I stopped on to work on the degree. I learned a system of studying and writing while working on the degree. Writing this book gets me back into that system. I will need to keep that system going when I publish this book so that I can move right on to the next one.
Thank again!!
I really feel 'better than yesterday' after watching this videos...😊😊
I agree with your ideas, thanks for this video!
sir your videos are so helpful as compared to other channels they are so easy to apply in someones life that elastic habits video was legit . thanks for skillshare 2 months free classes.
Hey, i just want to thank you for your videos that really helped me going through this life :) i watch your video every morning cause i get really productive when i do that! maybe those are my unique system😂 thanks a lot and keep up the good work!
Thank you .
This was discussed in the book 'Atomic Habits' by James Clear. Works very well.
totally agree, I just read that book recently and it's changed my life.
Goals are nothing but milestones for short-term planning within the frame of your long-term direction. Vision, strategy, habits and perseverance (=the system / journey) are where it's at. Goals are just for tracking progress, but never a means in itself. That's why goals and the KPIs you track should be aligned, if not identical. If your goals are a means in itself, you will end up leapfrogging with no clear strategic direction: 100k, 200k, 300k etc. But what for!? Think of the end of the flagpole first! Also, thinking of yourself as a business might help: You can apply all those terms to your life just like managers apply them to a corporation.
Really glad i can understand you without turning on the caption! ❣
Great content! You have inspired me to make a UA-cam channel and I have never been happier with my subscriber growth and content I am pushing out!
Brilliant video, thank you!
Wow, an eye opening stuff 🔥 Thanks for value 👍👍👍
Your video helped me to get back on track . I am preparing for a competitive exam but after this corona outbreak since that exam is postponed I was very much low , demotivated and don't study much . After using Cookie Jar Method as you said in one of your video I am slowly getting back the wisdom to study.
As always, thanks for make this video, it helps me out
Thank you for this video.
Really enlightening
Great channel, congratulations
I love this. We are all creatures of habit. First you create your habits, then your habits create you!
Awesome channel. Thanks for great info.
Great work Thank you
Thank you so much for this awesome learning videos!
Very helpful and well explained.
One other commenter mentioned Scott Adams, and many others mentioned a newer book (5 years newer) in “Atomic Habits” where Scott Adams’ book is “How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big: Kind of the Story of My Life” from 2013.
A proper system sets you up for falling into the pits of success while the most noble goal sets you up for failure more often than desired.
Besides, how many people with the goal of climbing Mount Everest failed and died by being so motivated?
Thanks for giving us useful information ❤
Another thing i like to do is to take time listing my thoughts and writing them down i also do this daily i find it very helpful.
