Summer Achievement Plan
Part Two

by Kevin Hogan

As I've worked closely with people, I've discovered the sum of what people do in a month usually can be done in an evening....really.

Most people "beat around the bush," and "dink around" so much it is maddening to hear about.

"I'm going to write the book...."

Shut up.

Write 1000 words per day minimum. Every day for 80 days.

Now you are done.

End of story.

It's not a "goal" to write 1000 words per day, it's like eating dinner. You just DO IT.

Most people babble a couple THOUSAND meaningless words at lunch. Instead of having lunch, grab your laptop and crank in 1000 words. Can you type 40 words per minute?

1000 words is 25 minutes.

If you have to research, great, research THEN type 1000 words.

Once stuff like this is habitual....it's habitual. It's the same as eating or sleeping.

Daily actions are usually moderate in scale but the value of them is cumulative in effect. The more you do them, the more effective they become.

Weekly actions are usually a bit larger in scale, take a little longer to complete, and HOPEFULLY involve an element of risk.

They are usually the most proactive in the sense that they help you face your fears and push forward determinedly.

They would include things like releasing your creations to the public, or increasing your business marketing efforts by attracting attention to your products or services. These bolder actions usually bring about bigger results.

....and they also are subject to failure, which is no big deal because you do something different next month.

Failing is anticipated and planned for. If you don't, great.

If you do, big deal. Everyone who succeeds fails....a lot.

Monthly actions are things you do to keep yourself on track, like evaluate your progress and readjust your plans if necessary. Monthly actions can also include extraneous activities not vital to your goal(s) except in peripheral ways. This can include networking, expanding your market reach, working on your personal development, reading, learning, researching, etc.

OK, below, list the most productive actions you can determine should be done daily, weekly and monthly. It's important to note that you are not setting a schedule with this exercise; you are simply identifying key, productive action steps that you can take on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. Don't get caught up wondering how you can find time to do all this, or whether a certain task should be done daily or weekly. Simply put down a general idea of the most productive actions that you can think of. You can always add to this list or change it later on.

Do NOT THINK TOO HARD. JUST DO....

Put down your Daily Action Steps. Turn the page...
