Doug Bennett interviews Dr. Rana Al-Falaki, a health and performance expert who shares her revolutionary approach to goal-setting. Prepare to be inspired as Rana unveils her FIRE technique, challenging the traditional SMART goals method. From visualising million-pound houses to achieving remarkable success, this episode is packed with actionable insights that will transform your approach to personal and professional goals.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The FIRE technique (Feeling, Integrity, Relevance, Engaging) adds depth to traditional SMART goals, engaging emotions and aligning goals with personal values.
• Visualisation and multi-sensory engagement are powerful tools for goal achievement, as demonstrated by Rana’s family experience in manifesting their dream home.
• Accountability is crucial for goal success, with studies showing you’re 40 times more likely to achieve goals when held accountable.
• Authenticity is key to personal and professional success, fostering trust and creating a foundation for accountability and goal achievement.
• The “five-second rule” can effectively combat procrastination by preventing overthinking and tapping into desire rather than fear or logic.
• Intuition plays a vital role in goal-setting and decision-making, requiring the silencing of distractions to trust your gut instinct.
• Daily rituals like acknowledging progress, celebrating wins, and practicing gratitude in free-form writing can enhance goal attainment.
• The “wantaholic syndrome” often leads to short-term fixes; instead, focus on sustainable, remarkable shifts that align with your true self for long-term fulfilment.

 BEST MOMENTS

“Only 9 percent of people who even set their goals do end up carrying on. The good news is if they do, then the chances are they will succeed massively in life.”

“I put the SMART goals in the BIN. Because the reality is if you want to achieve remarkable goals, which actually everybody deserves to do, why are we just, you know, sticking for the average?”

“If you’re confident in who you are, that’s okay. And societal norms as well that we’re battling against very often. And I think that’s easing back quite a, quite a lot.”

“Everything we’ve been talking about is about how to tap into energetic states that allow you to move forward.”

“We’re human beings, not human doings. We don’t just do a relationship. We don’t just do a career. We just don’t just do health. Actually, you can have goals in everything.”
