This is where the rubber hits the road, my friend.
So far in Upgrade YOU we’ve gone deepish into your goals and mind.
In some ways that’s valuable in its own right.
But in our context of driving your grandest goals, you might as well be dancing the jig.
To drive what you truly want, you must be taking action.
What action is our focus
You’ll see quickly in this video that I’m dismissing some of the harder topics on taking action.
Efficiency, effectiveness, time management, all that really matters.
And we’ll be hitting it in Upgrade YOU 3.3 where we talk about engineering flow.
That can be real hard.
But also easy relative to knowing what actions to take.
And being excellent taking them.
Focus is like driving a car
You can drive anywhere in a car.
Right now, you could jump in and start driving across the country.
Once you’ve decided, it’s just a matter of doing it.
That’s the power of focus.
And, sure, yes, there’s lots of ways that getting yourself to focus can be real hard.
It’s so hard that I’ve built programs around it.
Yet, it’s still much easier than this.
Where are you driving?
Which roads are you taking?
How are you getting there?
Are you sure that’s the right destination?
Certain these are the right roads?
What might be better roads to take?
Can you get there faster?
Better?
See my point?
Truly, what moves the needle?
What actions, TRULY, drive the results you want?
All day every day you can get yourself to focus, but unless you’re focused on what moves the needle, well, as I said, you might as well be dancing the jig.
That’s the point of this video.
And indeed this first routine in upgrading your actions—
Getting clear on what actions truly matter to driving your goals.
So you’re not just driving, but driving where you want!
