You’ve Hit Your Big Goal… Now What?

🎯 You've done it.
⛔️ And if you Stop now.
⚠️ There's a risk of stagnation.

Here's the trick I learnt coaching high achievers ...

Truth is:
↳ You’ve hit your milestone.
↳ The adrenaline from a big win is great.
↳ Without a next step even the best successes fade quickly.
↳ Staying still means losing momentum.
↳ That can lead to complacency.

What’s next?

🌊 Time to jump the river …

River Jumping = a concept from Dave Allan's book “What If?”
↳ Your next challenge = the river.
↳ Your old, safe methods = the banks
↳ You jumping = setting bold, new goals.

Here’s how you use it:

1️⃣ Your next stretch goal: Go for what feels slightly out of reach
- What’s the one goal you’ve been avoiding because it seems too big?
- Bigger goal—bigger growth.

2️⃣ Leaving the familiar for something bigger: Redefine success
- Push beyond what worked for you before.
- Expand into new markets, clients, or projects.
- Focus there—it’s usually worth chasing.

3️⃣ Taking risks: Experiment and Leap
- A stretch goal mean taking risks.
- Jump into new ideas.
- You could fail, but you’ll learn—and win in the long run.

🚀 What’s Next for You?
Are you playing it safe, or is it time to leap into something bigger?

Does consultative selling work with public sector clients? In my last post, I recommended Consultative Selling by Mack Hanan. Reading the book, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s all about commercial business. The language is all about profit improvement. Hanan puts that at the core of client conversations.
