Most people would never get in a car and drive for years without a destination… but that’s exactly how many of us approach our health. In this episode, Dr. Kevin Wall is joined by Dr. Ryan Sculley and Dr. Josh Bock (leaders at AFC Physical Medicine Centers) to break down why most people drift in their health, and how simple goal setting can change everything.

They walk through the most common goal-setting mistakes (too many goals, comparison, quitting too soon, unrealistic expectations), then give a practical framework for building goals that actually stick: write it down, make it specific and measurable, attach a deadline, and create small action steps you can repeat daily.

Key Takeaways:

• Health doesn’t improve “by accident”. You need a clear target and a plan.
• Fewer goals = better results (focus beats overwhelm).
• Stop comparing: aim for progress you can sustain.
• Small daily wins build momentum, confidence, and consistency.
• Write your goals where you’ll see them and review them daily.
