The 90% Action — A Simple Rule To Get Things Done In 2024
As the new year comes along, you may yet again be planning your new goals for 2024. Committing to and maintaining your goals can be hard, but it’s much simpler once you’ve identified the actions that make you tick.
What do you normally do before you work towards tasks related to your goal? Where do you usually go?
If your goal this year is to lose weight by working out at gym, the action that gets you 90% of the way there might just be going to the gym. Ensuring that this single action takes place makes the follow-through commitments easy!
For each of your goals this year, try to commit to the 90% action for that goal instead. Personally, I‘ll be committing to leaving the house and working at a cafe or library because I tend to be much more focused and do my best work in that environment.
