Bro, I Think You and I Might Be Doing The Wrong Thing

🔥

Here is the uncomfortable truth (it really is):

If two weeks pass and you have made no noticeable progress, you are pulling the wrong levers (reality has billions if not trillions of components that if aligned can give you the effect you desire).

If you want to know whether you are on the right path, track your milestones.

Every day, complete 1 to 3 priority tasks that push your project forward. That single practice separates who grow from who pretend.

Some people unconsciously want to fail because failure protects their identity. It lets them stay exactly where they are and blame (any vague cause).

I brreak that loop by adding progress checkpoints.

Every two weeks, I pause and ask: “Is the project moving forward or am I keeping myself busy?”

I put a check-in on my calendar every two weeks.

If I am not closer to my target, I adjust the goal, learn what I’m missing, align causes in a bit of a different way and move again (with force, sir).

Your frame is built from vision, projects, and levers. Milestones are how you can avoid lying to yourself.
