This episode is about limiting how much research you do before you take a leap. A lot of times there’s no way to have 100% of the information on a decision you need to make...but you still need to make some sort of decision!

Action Steps:

1. For practice at this, play chess. There’s absolutely no way you can improve by just learning information. You have to put it into practice and play THOUSANDS of games before you develop a mastery of the board
2. Limit your research to just an hour or two

2. Schedule a weekly time (15 mins) to reflect on the week and schedule a celebration of the big wins (even if an accident!)

• In the physical world
• Your ‘squishy’ goal
• The emotional vibe you’re trying to achieve
• How you’re going to accomplish it

1. Ask for feedback from QUALIFIED trusted sources
2. Accept, internalize, and process the fact that people will think you’re crazy, but it’s worth it
3. Schedule actions which put you closer to your goal
