Let's look at different levels of effort:

Working hard vs.

• No effort at all - This is self-explanatory
• Retreating - You don't care about meeting goals
• Doing an "average" amount - Most of us are at this level (and it can be dangerous!)
• Massive amounts of effort (doubling, tripling, 10X-ing?) - This is the only level that will get you where you want to be

Once you can clearly see your true effort level, you will find that committing to each of the following will help immensely with reaching and fulfilling your goals and needs:

1. Get your priorities straight
2. Count on your community
3. Track EVERYTHING to see progress
4. Set schedule for priorities
5. Optimize your time

Be honest! Be focused! Be successful! You will still be you, but even BETTER!
