Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast. This week, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses a crucial aspect of your performance journey – finding purpose and setting goals. These two elements are essential for success, whether aiming for a world championship, building a business, or simply striving to be the best version of yourself. They are the foundation of your performance. Matt defines and highlights the differences between purpose and goals, and explores the process of building effective goals and understanding their value. He also stresses the importance of creating a plan to achieve these goals, leveraging support and resources, and avoiding common pitfalls that lead to goal failure. We hope this episode serves as an informative and go-to resource on your performance journey.
