Systems Instead of Goals - SEO & Content marketing is Very Similar

I recently read this book called A​tomic Habits​. The author talks about how we should focus on ​Systems instead of Goals.​
He says a goal-focused mindset can cause a rollback effect once the goal is achieved. 
For example, 
Goal: Lose 10 kilos (most of us would go back to old patterns once we achieve the goal)
System: Workout 4 times a week. 
If you think about it, SEO & Content marketing is very similar.
Let’s say you have a Goal to rank for a particular keyword in position number 1, you would: 
- Analyze search intent 
- Do keyword/ competitor research 
- Plan topic clusters 
- Write content 
- Influence rankings by doing on-page / off-page changes 
But SEO/ Content is a continuous process that doesn’t stop once you get to rank 1. 
Hence we have to set up the right processes to build backlinks, set up interlinks, refreshing old content & writing new content. 
The purpose of setting goals is to win the game. The purpose of building systems is to continue playing the game.
