1. "To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan, and not quite enough time. – Leonard Bernstein
2. Become a person worth listening to by not making this terrible mistake. Use show notes. Do show notes! Why? People listen with their eyes first.
3. Show Notes. Persistent, consistent action, with a plan. Keep you calm too!
4. The How - What you need to do
- Set aside calendar time to write to sleep on it, and to edit the draft.
- Yes to your subconscious
- Really want to be worth listening to. Here’s where you draw the line and then step over.
5. [TAKE ACTION] Write down WHAT, WHY, WHEN, and HOW. Set your timer for 13 minutes and start capturing your thoughts. Then step away and let your subconscious bubble.
