The key to BHAG is to tell others what it is - people don't like proving themselves wrong! BHAG is the foundation of stating motivated!

I would add "Rewarding Yourself" is another great way to stay motivated. Reaching your goals whether its a BHAG or a small daily goal should count for something. We all like to be rewarded. If you stay disciplined and achieve a goal...splurge a little...It keeps you reaching for the finish line. Great post. I would add “Rewarding Yourself” is another great way to stay motivated.

I find this one of the biggest challenges of owning a startup. I think you could easily argue that keeping yourself motivated, is harder then motivating those around you. Thanks for the tips! Tyler Dan,

Great post. I find this one of the biggest challenges of owning a startup.

You just gotta have ridiculous goals, there is no other way to live. And who you associate with and hang out with really effects your success. There have been countless studies about this and I think Malcolm Gladwell touched on it in Tipping Point; or one of his other books. Great post. Cheers. Ethan P.S. Any book recommendations in regards to setting goals? My favorites are BHAG and The Company You Keep. You just gotta have ridiculous goals, there is no other way to live.

I think accountability is the key for so many reasons. For example I "normally" run 2 - 5 times a week but when I tell somebody "I want to run the 5k New Years eve in 20 minutes flat", I suddenly switch to running a very structured 5 days a week without a chance of missing a day AND I eat better :) Cheers, Steve Hey Dan,
