In this week’s Monday Morning Motivation, host Anna Steinfest unpacks Jack Welch’s powerful philosophy of stretch goals—ambitious targets designed to push you beyond what feels possible. Playing it safe keeps your business small, but aiming high—even if you fall short—unlocks creativity, grit, and growth you never thought you had.

Anna breaks down three practical ways small business owners can apply stretch goals this week:

  • Reach for the unreachable instead of settling for mediocrity.
  • Forget the decimal points and stop obsessing over perfection.
  • Don’t punish falling short—celebrate progress and keep climbing.

If you’re ready to stop playing small and start building momentum, this episode will inspire you to stretch beyond limits and surprise yourself with what you can achieve.
