You’ve achieved what you set out to do, but if you stop now, you risk stagnation.
The adrenaline from a big win is great, but without a next step, even the best successes fade quickly. Top performers know that staying still means losing momentum.
You’ve hit your milestone. But staying on the same bank? That leads to complacency.
So, what’s next?
Time to jump the river …
River Jumping: Your next stretch goal
River jumping is a concept from Dave Allan's book “What If?”It means taking risks. It means leaving the familiar for something bigger.
The challenge is the river.
The banks are your old, safe methods.
Jumping? That’s setting bold, new goals.
Here’s how you use it:
1. 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.
2. Redefine success
Push beyond what worked for you before. Expand into new markets, clients, or projects. Focus there—it’s usually worth chasing.
3. 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.
