This season, Anne and Frances are introducing a new segment called Toolkit: a practical guide to ideas, tools, and frameworks that can help you reach your goals at work and beyond. In this episode, they tackle the important first step of setting those (ambitious) goals, and break down the tried-and-true Harada Method into a few easy steps. They take a closer look at Shohei Ohtani, a baseball player who put this method into wildly successful practice, and discuss how they set goals in their own lives and in their relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Photo Credit:<br \/>\nJoe Glorioso\/All-Pro Reels for Washington Times Sports<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/10457902@N08\/53677091634\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53677091634_5bd898b744_b.jpg?resize=1024%2C682&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Dodgers at Nationals\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Join us in person at a TED conference: https:\/\/tedtalks.social\/events<br \/>\nBecome a TED Member to support our mission: https:\/\/ted.com\/membership<br \/>\nSubscribe to a TED newsletter: https:\/\/ted.com\/newsletters<\/p>\n<p>Follow TED!<br \/>\nX: https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/TEDTalks<br \/>\nInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ted<br \/>\nFacebook: https:\/\/facebook.com\/TED<br \/>\nLinkedIn: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/ted-conferences<br \/>\nTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@tedtoks<br \/>\nPodcasts: https:\/\/www.ted.com\/podcasts<\/p>\n<p>The TED Audio Collective is a collection of podcasts for the curious. <\/p>\n<p>The TED Audio Collective videos may be used for non-commercial purposes under a Creative Commons License, Attribution\u2013Non Commercial\u2013No Derivatives (or the CC BY \u2013 NC \u2013 ND 4.0 International) and in accordance with our TED Talks Usage Policy (https:\/\/www.ted.com\/about\/our-organiz&#8230;).
