Mindset
Define one step for each day, so tiny, that you know you will carry it out. Break the project down into daily bites of work. Then take action every day.
Know in every moment what needs to be done to move you toward your goal.
Always ask this before you do a task: Does doing this get me closer to creating what I want to create?
Only plan items you can execute! Make your plans achievable. Less might be better. When you make plans you cannot achieve your motivation will be killed!

The Week In Retrospect
Look at the previous week, before planning the next week. Do this every Monday morning.
What has worked? What did not work? Do you need to adjust The Machine? Be honest, find the truth. Plan the next week.
- Identify problems that stand in the way of you achieving the outcome this week
- Diagnose problems to get at their causes
- Design plans that will get you around your problems and toward the defined outcome
- Push through to completion. Do what is necessary.
- Define the outcome for next week that will bring you closer to your goal.
19th of August 2018 Recap Of Week One
The week started quite well, but mid-week I did not do any of the work I had planned. Too much work at my day-job might be one reason. The low Steem price might be another. The good weather might be yet another cause of my terrible work-attitude this week. I really don't know. I will just do better this week :)
