Episode description

Do you need help creating a timeline for your side biz and keeping to a schedule? This episode should help you with some tips to simplify the process for you.

  • Begin with the end in mind

    • If you don’t know where your heading, it’ll be difficult (or impossible) to get there


  • Breakdown into logical stepping stones

    • Start from the end and work your way backwards


  • Put realistic timeframes for each step – plus add a buffer

    • The time you set will vary depending on your personal situation and schedule


  • Narrow down to the very next action

    • The only way you can really move forward is if you identify what the next thing is that you can actually do
    • Use the principle of The ONE Thing to help with this to not only choose the logical step, but also the best and most effective step


  • Schedule time to work on the next action

    • This is called “time-blocking” – treat it like you would treat any other appointment
