π Weekly Wins
π Hello friend
Welcome to Weekly Wins. π Let's dive into the nuggets of progress and discoveries from this past week:
Last week, I shared my habit tracking journey. I have added the goal of hitting 10,000 steps daily. Spoiler: It's tougher than it may or may not sound!
I've also been fine-tuning my sleep with the SD8 Framework:
- Schedule 3 key tasks for tomorrow.
- Digital Shutdown 1 hour before bed.
- 8 hours of Zs, minimum.
Audiobook Alert: I'm hooked on The Diary of a CEO by Steven Bartlett. It's a goldmine of stories and psychology in business.
This Week's Wisdom: "In relationships, like in bad marketing, we often pitch what matters to us, not what the other person needs. Shift your view; transform your connections." - from Shortform: Gino Wickman, Traction
Take Action Coaching Technique
- Where do you want to be? On a scale (from 1-10) which measures where you want to be, this is probably a 10 out of 10.
- Which number represents where you are right now on the scale in relationship to your goal?
- Which one thing would take you up half a point?
... another half a point?
... another half a point?
Schedule the action points into your calendar.
Master the 80/20 Principle: I try to ask myself before each major task: What are 20% of the effort/things I should work on to achieve 80% of the result? I have an accountability buddy whom I message every day what I 80/20'd today. This is the best technique to implement 80/20.
Beating Procrastination: Some questions I posted on Reddit recently, I thought I'd share with you.
- What will I maximize, and what will I minimize to get started as quickly as possible?
- How can I make this fun?
- Am I showing up as an amateur or a professional in this area of life?
- How can I make it easier?
- Am I managing my time or my energy?
- How can I make this trackable?
- What is the next micro-goal I could achieve to get me closer to the macro-goal I want to achieve?
- How can I avoid bad habits and implement good ones by replacing the bad ones?
- What are the behaviors/habits/process goals I could track to achieve my long-term goals?
- Which obstacles might I face in the process of getting started, and how am I planning to overcome them?
- What does my ideal self look like in the areas of health, work, and relationships?
- Which courses, coaches, and groups could help me get started on what I want to achieve?
- Would I get started if a stranger were holding a gun to the head of my loved one?
- How can I make this fun, perhaps with instrumental studying music on Spotify?
Have a great week! π
