   98 - Stop Setting Realistic Goals | Duncan Starr-Boltt on Impossible Goals, Freedom & High Performance

   What if the reason you're stuck isn't because your goals are too ambitious... but because they're not ambitious enough? In this episode of The Buffalo Sessions, Jamie Stewart is joined by high-performance coach Duncan Starr-Boltt to explore the concept of "Impossible Goals" and why traditional goal setting may be holding ambitious business owners back. Duncan explains why realistic goals often lead to incremental improvements rather than transformational change, and how setting goals that seem impossible forces you to think differently, focus on what truly matters, and become the person capable of achieving extraordinary results. The conversation explores the power of the 80/20 principle, creating a business around your ideal lifestyle, overcoming overwhelm, designing a life you enjoy, and why success often comes from what you stop doing rather than what you add. Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, leader, or someone feeling stuck in your current situation, this episode will challenge how you think about growth, performance, and what's possible. In This Episode - Why realistic goals can limit your potential - What an "Impossible Goal" actually is - How to use the 80/20 principle to create transformational growth - The connection between identity and achievement - Why becoming the person comes before getting the result- The hidden cost of overwhelm and constant busyness - How breathwork, mindfulness and recovery improve performance - Building a business around your ideal life rather than fitting life around your business - The importance of environment and surrounding yourself with the right people - Why high performers invest in coaching and support Key Takeaways - Impossible goals force you to think differently. - Growth comes from transformation, not simply working harder. - Success often requires letting go of activities that no longer serve you. - Your identity shapes your decisions, behaviours and results. - The people around you have a significant impact on what you believe is possible. - Freedom is often created through focus, systems and simplicity. - High performance and wellbeing work together, not against each other.
