Why the secret to success is setting the right goals | John Doerr | TED

[@danielleanyasodor7567]

OKRs are explained at one of the highest levels. Thank you Mr. John Doerr for sharing those stories. Such a fantastic message!

[@cainiaoyihao5654]

A note for myself: 6:17 for objectives: significant, concrete, action-oriented, inspirational. 7:24 for key results: specific and time-bound, aggressive but realistic, measurable and verifiable

[@andreapena6556]

Thank you

[@mozaarsenal1113]

Ted Talk is not a place where you can find your exact answers to life but instead it is a wonderful place to get inspired and motivated. They done their part and it's up to us to make the difference by taking actions

Many peoples use ted in many purposes. So how you use it depend on yourselves. This is nescesary to appreciate a person, including speaker and listener.

[@NganNguyen-hm5qc]

I strongly agree!

[@5tew.ryalyst]

He literally just answered the question: How are people who change the world going about it?

[@huyennhatle9701]

I totally agree. No matter how much you know from seeing all Ted Talks, execution is what matters most.

[@aireddy]

John Explanation is fantastic. Objectives should be significant, concrete, action-oriented, inspirational. key results are specific and time-bound, aggressive but realistic, measurable and verifiable. OKR's are important for individuals as wells as organizations.

[@henrymickens7899]

What a OUTSTANDING piece of knowledge, I wouldn't had a clear understand of OKR until now. I just found myself keeping my head-down and not getting my goals clearly defined for what, why and how. The passion Bono related too, made me reflex, exam, and restructure what my passion is and with my head-up I can ignite my passion to Keep Moving Forward with a greater passion for what is on the horizon.

[@themischievousbrat5525]

My life is not the same after watching you deliver this fantastic message, John. Thank you.

[@shesallovertheplace]

Ditto

[@michellsilva5785]

We don't know what the result is until we define the objective. Here John demonstrates how great leaders were able to clearly use OKR. It is inspiring when a human being has the goal of changing the world, that is to dream big.

[@Miaping_]

What I felt from watching this video is the reaffirmation that clear goals and measurable outcomes are the key to success.

[@LazareCory]

There's a book called Hidden Time Wealth, and it talks about how using some secret techniques, you can overcome procrastination and accomplish anything in life. It's not just a bunch of empty promises; it's the real deal.

[@soniacanalla900]

Can you provide the author please?

[@venomsrivastava130]

It doesn't actually exists, it's a scam

[@manta567]

Fake likes.

[@hgyuuguuuy9464]

He's one if the most incredible and eloquant public speakers I've ever listened to.

[@ewertonquirinosouza2867]

Vídeo extremamente valioso, nos mostra em poucas palavras a essência do "OKR", o que me chama atenção é a aplicabilidade não só e em empresas mas também em equipes e na vida pessoal. O que eu entendo esta resumido em duas perguntas: Sabe onde quer chegar? - Fez o que tem que ser feito? - a resposta é tão simples quanto o método: Sim ou Não. Separar um tempo para se dedicar ao objetivo e resulta chave com muito cuidado e assertividade. Lembrando que o método não substitui uma cultura forte, mas agrega. Grato pelo Vídeo.

[@voodoochile80]

I have been using OKRs at my org for a year now. I strongly recommend them. The great value i get out of them is the fact they force you to keep what's important in mind and work every week to progress towards those goals. Every Monday I'm reminded the 9 reasons my department is working that week and what should be done concretely in the following 5 days. The focus on what matters is key

[@sandyvdh6226]

Skip to 7: 29 for definition of smart goals. Rest is uninteresting, is about passion, stories of success and evolution of achievements.

[@tayyebbio]

Every time I tuned in to TED, I learn something very transformational. Thank you, TED community.

[@LessonsInLife]

Before you can achieve anything in life, first you have to know what you want, set your goal and make it happen. The power in goal setting is believed to lie in the articulation of the difference between where we are now and where we want to be.

[@Grod77711]

🙌🏼

[@MrChiangching]

This has been the secret to my success for over 30 years! Set your goals and expectations really low and you'll always be successful!

[@Mornys]

Apparently gambling on a fart is too high.

[@PremJay]

I think you should always set your expectations really high and go for it

[@iamanderson]

Sarcasm? I just want to be sure

[@greglarry11]

I think you need to watch it again.

[@Jspec03]

Hmm. I gues it should be high then divide it into small portions where you think it’s low because it’s achievable, then repeat the process ‘til you reach the head/ main goal.

[@IvanaGiordanors]

The way Hidden Time Wealth dives into the concept of productivity is mind-blowing. Hidden Time Wealth tips are pure gold, and I wish more people knew about them.

[@TrepanierBleasdille]

Hidden Time Wealth blew my mind. I’ve shared it with friends, and they’re all amazed at how much more productive they've become.

[@okrbusinessofficial]

00:15 Leaders and institutions are failing us 01:44 Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) are a goal-setting system that works for organizations, teams, and individuals. 03:04 Jini Kim's company, Nuna, successfully built a cloud database for Medicaid despite the challenges. 04:36 Jini's mission is to provide healthcare access through Medicaid 06:04 Audacious objectives are debt relief for the poorest countries in the world and universal access to anti-HIV drugs. 07:29 OKRs are measurable and verifiable goals introduced in 1999 08:49 Chrome's success is attributed to setting and sticking to ambitious goals 10:15 OKRs can be used to measure what really matters

[@ross4814]

I love how this resonates with Simon Sinek's work, starting with Why. The great addition this has for me is OKR's expression of How. I hope to put this to good use.

[@abchickendi]

Thank you so much i was too in the abstract for everything this show will change my life

[@Philjoe]

Learning always brings you closer to your dreams. The what and how's in life. It's a process.

[@LaylaBunnies]

Hidden Time Wealth is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be for anyone battling procrastination.

[@marcelosantos2006]

Great, simple, and actionable content. This is the material potential leaders out there need

[@aertybhujm1]

I have finished watching this video completely. (我看完這部影片了) I am a Taiwanese who cares about the global affairs. (我是一個關心全球事務的台灣人) And, sadly, most of my fellow Taiwanese don't really care about the world. (但是，很不幸地，我大部分的台灣同胞不那麼在意世界。) Hopefully Taiwan can become increasingly globally-aware and globally-competitive. (希望台灣可以越來越有全球意識與全球競爭力。) God bless Taiwan. (天佑台灣。)

[@tuxmode]

Taiwan is already globally competitive. I went there last year and I was amazed by how advanced they are compared to most country especially mine.

[@aertybhujm1]

[@JL-sw3sb]

Taiwan is doing well in environment awareness.

[@이수민-z1z3r]

I learned so much about setting the right goals Thank you for this wonderful speech

[@JohnKooz]

Great performance with a powerful message on goal achievement from John Doerr!

[@blossomev8367]

Great Ted Talk. I've been using this methodology for over a decade but the OKR system makes it easily implementable and provides relatable terminology. John is fantastic at articulating the materials and summarizing the central points. Keep up the great work John!

[@dustblownrecords5768]

Dear Mr. Doer, Im a single Father, determined to leave a legacy for my children, by establishing a blueprint of how others can acheive their dreams, by simply letting go of the everyday norm, and pouring the passion into a territorial leap of faith. However, my biggest obstacle has been, my floating ability, in which I invent the hows to possibly thrive in the city life, with less passion, compared to thriving in a rural, desert like environment, where all the why's and what's are so more apparent. Having more than one talent, sometimes seems to be more of a disadvantage. I talk myself into toughing it out in the city, where jobs and resources are more abundant, but the focus on the quality of life, becomes more of a blur. Although the majority of my goals are inner-twined, as they share equal values and similar in origin, they are all based on one large why. That why is everything I've learned and live for, wrapped up in a pschadelic, geographical compound, a place where all these talents meet, and yet my faith and confidence, as inspiring as they may be, have often been intercepted by the physical where I am now thoughts. I know the whats, and why's, but the damn hows have turned confusing, with no warning, especially when my economical resources are at their highest. What is my problem, and why is it so difficult for me to choose the one goal and initiate that action, then build from there? I need an answer to how I'm going to graduate to this self reliant doer, that seizes the rocky paths in a bobcat tractor, and drops that container on my his land, and continues to build, with energy and purpose, following the how, regardless of what others may not conceive or visualize in the manor that I do. I do believe in my ability to aceive any reasonable goal, and I am very passionate, filled with simplicity, that sometimes, inspite of how easy I draft my agenda, it becomes overwhelming to exercise. It's really ridiculous, especially knowing, the time is now. Are you still there? signed, My Foggy How

[@EimileKhalifah]

Discovering Hidden Time Wealth has been one of the best things I've done for my productivity. It feels like I’ve finally cracked the code to overcoming procrastination.

[@okrleague3820]

I've been implementing OKRs for various companies for a long time now and it's amazing how the OKR mechanism can help companies and industries reach their goals, not only that, OKR also tremendously help in clarity and transparency. This can do wonders IF implemented the right way.

[@ruchirak1523]

Loved your explanation of OKRs on your channel. ❤️

[@TheDrunkenGrape]

thank you for breaking OKRs down into a fun and meaningful way that is so easy to relate to. Right now I am doing the Google Project Management Certification and this really helped clarify things. No wonder the course recommends this brilliant Ted Talk. Thank you John!

[@lauralove9959]

Exactly what I needed to hear. Perfect timing. Thank you Father❤

🌟 This TED Talk by John Doerr is an absolute gem! 💎 It sheds light on a crucial aspect of leadership and goal-setting that often goes unnoticed. 🎯 Doerr's insights on "Objectives and Key Results" (OKRs) are a game-changer, empowering us to set audacious goals and achieve remarkable success. 🚀 As someone passionate about AI and personal development, I find this talk incredibly relevant and inspiring. 🔥

John I tell you, you really really taught me something through this lecture it shows that you fell threw some loop holes before you got to the established financial height that you are at now but you excelled to victory. I will take what has been imparted to me through this and draw strongly from it for my better. Thanks for having already been down that path whereby you can point me and others in the right direction toward success I applaud you. Goals should be a normal part of our lives because it's a type of laid out plan to get us to our desired dreams I love what I've heard today!!!! John even at the height that you have gotten to please don't leave God out of your life He is so neccessary to your well being. God bless you from your sister in Christ in Hammond, LA.

Question: who would like to share some of your personal OKRs? I am new to this.

[@michaelaubry1338]

Values: Sharing my projects and making a delightful difference with them. Having freedom in doing so. Working wherever I want. Having no cap on my earning potential. Objectives: Raise some small capital. Find the top 1-3 use cases my product offers that digital creators are hungry for. Use that to position myself in the market and hold that position. Define exactly what the target customer looks like and go after them with prospecting. Follow up with leads and make sales. Delegate better. Key Results: $1k MRR in one month. $3k MRR in 2 months. $10k MRR in 3 months.

[@seancloser]

I was told how important it is that goals be measurable. But now I know, it makes us shallow too cuz there are too many invaluable things in the world that we should give credits to.
