So What Do I Want and Why Should You Care?
Jun 5th
“The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.” ~Michelangelo
What do I want specifically? And why should you care? Well, you should care because I am going to show you a process of achieving more in less time and feeling great along the way. That should, and I mean should, interest you. So, what do I want specifically?
I want a book published by September 17th. I want it available in a least 2 formats: 1) A downloadable Ebook and 2) A printed version. I want all of the ground work done, the work behind the scenes, so that this book is a great seller for me. This is my Outcome – the O in my OPA project. I am as specific as I can be here so that I can focus my energy and my attention. In the next entry we will look at Purpose – the P in my OPA project and this is where things will start to really move!

The Book Begins
Jun 4th
“Never measure the height of a mountain, until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.” -Dag Hammarskjold
I will have a book published and for sale by the end of the business day Wednesday September 17th. Great! I have made that commitment. Now, how do I make sure that happens? (Especially since I still have not yet selected the topic of this book.)
First I will put these three pieces together. 1) I will figure out what I want. (My Outcome – as specific as I can determine this early on in the process.) 2) Why do I want it. (My Purpose – what it will mean to me to have it done.) 3) What do I need to do, and by when, to make this happen? (My Actions – what specifically do I need to do.) In my language, I will put together an OPA Project – Outcome, Purpose, Action.
The concept of an OPA Project is not mine. It comes from my time with the great coach and speaker Anthony Robbins. Thanks Tony. I encourage you to watch how I lay out this project over the next 3 months. I think you will find it interesting and useful.
Till next time…Jack
