5 steps to achieving remarkable results
1. Imagine the outcome you want to create.
Envision where you are headed in great detail. Don't talk yourself out of it. Don't encourage yourself to be realistic. Don't be your own bottleneck at this stage.
What would the magical outcome be?
2. Deconstruct it.
What steps are involved? Who would you need to partner with? What skills would you need to build? What resources would you need to acquire?
What price needs to be paid to make it happen?
3. Wrestle with reality.
What constraints are you facing? What are your current advantages and how can you use them? Can you simplify and eliminate steps? Are there alternate paths?
Hold tightly to the core of your idea, but be flexible with the details. Edit and revise.
4. Determine the first step.
You don't need to see the entire path right now. Don't get hung up on future steps. You will learn more after you begin. You will see farther once you start walking.
What comes first?
5. Don't rush, but don't wait.
Act with urgency, but release yourself from the need to achieve it on a particular timeline. When you think longer term than most, you can think bigger than most.
If it takes years, start now.
