I totally agree about breaking down BHAG into SMGs. My BHAG is to have a full client list before the end of October. The SMGs need to be goals that you CAN control. Don’t set goals whose outcomes are outside of your control. Set goals that you can achieve. For instance, don’t make the SMG of having 10 new clients before next month - make the goal to send out 50 letters, pass out 75 business cards, etc.

Thanks Greg. Impacting a million business owners is a BHAG. All the best. Keep us posted when you reach it, as I am sure you will.

That must be a lot of grass you would have mowed down. And that must have been quite a work out.

I have heard of the Edmonton chill - except that when I visited it once, it was a pleasant minus 10 in January.

Again, all the best as you dream up your BHAGs. Keep us posted.

Great article, keep up the great work. I agree in regards to breaking down a BHAG. last September I set a BHAG of impacting 1,000,000 business owners. My first step in the process was to test working from a remote location and seeing if I could keep my business going… we spent 7 weeks in Hawaii and everything went really well.

Just wish I had remembered to get someone to cut my lawn while we were away.

I learned that overall I am pretty pleased with my lifestyle here in Edmonton, except that I cannot easily swim in the ocean each morning.

So I am in the process of creating BHAG 2.
