The Missing Variable to Goal Achievement


Hi Reader,

As STEM professionals we live in a world of logic. Sometimes we forget to tune into our heartfelt and real emotions, mainly when it comes to personal growth.

Data says most of us give up on our personal goals by February. But I don’t need stats to tell me that. I’ve seen and lived it.

Last year a friend had a big goal to lose weight. He had a solid plan. He knew the logic: health problems = time to change. He got a walking buddy. He bought a stationary bike.

He even told me, “This time, I’m serious.” And he was… for a while. Then, slowly, the weekly updates turned into confessions.

“I biked for 2 miles — but I also crushed a pack of cookies.” Sound familiar? Before long, the bike was collecting dust, the walks stopped, and his goal faded away.

We’ve all been there.

So, what happened.

He never connected to his why — that deeper reason that fuels us when things get tough.

To give ourselves a reasonable chance of success - we must not overlook this important step.

That’s exactly what I shared in my latest LinkedIn Live. If you’ve got a goal that matters (and you’re tired of starting over), don’t miss the replay. It might be the boost you need.

Check out the replay here if you’re ready to do more than just start strong.

Bobby,

I am very grateful to you for believing in me. Many people give words of encouragement enough to feel like they did their part to offer support. You Bobby went further and invested your time and patiently guided me into a place where I became confident in what you already realized in me.

BOBBY CLARK FINANCIAL COACH Hi Reader, Sometimes our best money decisions are made when the house is finally still. No voices.No notifications.No one needs anything from you. Just the hum of the room and the sound of your own breathing. This is usually when it happens. You lie in bed, staring into the dark, and your mind drifts, back to money. Not in numbers. Not in spreadsheets. In feelings. The weight of it.The anxious heartbeat.The sense that something important has been waiting too long....

BOBBY CLARK FINANCIAL COACH Hi Reader, I have been thinking about this topic for a few days and I think it may be helpful to you. Let me say this gently, but clearly. If you feel too busy for your money, it’s not because you don’t care.It’s because life has gotten loud, and you’ve been carrying more than you were meant to carry alone. Most days, work demands your best thinking, your energy, and your emotional presence. By the time the day ends, your mind isn’t looking for one more decision....

BOBBY CLARK Hi Reader, The first week of the new year is aready behind us. That was quick. Before you set goals for 2026, I want to invite you to do something different. Pause. Not because you’re unmotivated.Not because you’ve given up.But because you’re tired. For many of us, the weight we’re carrying isn’t a lack of drive, it’s emotional exhaustion. Work and life has demanded more than usual. Life has felt full, heavy, and unrelenting. And money, quietly, has added to that pressure. So...
