Figuring out "The How"
"I just need to figure out how to do this first."
"I'll feel confident and committed once I figure out "how" to hit this goal."
I often hear this from my clients when we start discussing their goals. I took the same approach, for YEARS.
I read all of the books, took the courses, watched the YouTube videos, etc.
I spent more time figuring out the "how" than taking action.
Figuring out the "how" is a sneaky way you trick yourself into not taking action.
Busywork.
You're doing stuff, but it's not moving the needle.
It's also how you put the responsibility of your results onto someone else.
“Well, I followed his plan, and it didn't work. His plan failed, not me.”
Even if you can find the "right plan," the only thing you will learn is how to follow someone else's instructions.
It's okay, and it works sometimes.
But you will always need someone to tell you what to do.
Here's where I differ:
I will help you determine a specific result you want to create.
I will show you how to reverse engineer it so that it's good as done.
But most importantly, I will show you how to figure out "the how" on your own.
You will figure out what works for you and your unique circumstances as we go.
You don't have to spend hours and hours and hours finding a step by step plan.
Sure, there is obvious value in learning from experts as you go, but you will not wait until you have A-Z mapped out before you believe and start taking action.
Imagine the benefits in your life after you:
Learned how to create any result you want, period.
Learned how to take full responsibility for the results you create (even when you can't find a step-by-step plan).
Learned how to have fun while accomplishing those goals that seem "far-fetched, unrealistic, and silly."
Once you learn how to do this, you can do it every week, month, and year for the rest of your life.
It's insanely fun and empowering.
It's not always easy, but neither is staying stuck.
...or spending hours, weeks, months, and years "researching" to find the best plan.
...or getting to January 2022 looking back and realizing that another year has passed and once again, you've made no progress.
Result creation.
Immediate shifts.
Empowerment.
This is what I do for my clients.
I'd love to help you too.
If you're ready to make a change this year, I can help.
Schedule your call here to see what that would look like for you.
Happy New Year,
