While writing this blog, I intentionally create sets of practices that are scalable and adaptable to ideas big and small. Whether someone wants to work locally in their neighborhood with a few friends, start a non-profit that solves a big societal problem, or a business has an idea to develop a product they want to make millions of dollars from, the practices apply and scale up or down.<\/p>\n

Albert Einstein imparted his wisdom of goal setting and ideas in this quote:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.\u201d \u2013Albert Einstein<\/i><\/p>\n

What he stated simply and brilliantly, was \u2018we cannot get there from here.\u2019 So, wherever your idea births from in your mind or your life, the practices I teach you very deliberately to pull you out of that context from which you birthed your idea and into a different set of contexts where you can make it happen.<\/p>\n

This ensures the problems that were behind that original idea don\u2019t stop you from being successful in making that idea happen.<\/b><\/p>\n

Want to have all the daily practices I\u2019ve been teaching you in one convenient place? Get a copy of my book Mission to Million$ \u2013 Taking Big Ideas and Making Them a Reality<\/a>.<\/p>\n

AN OBJECT IN MOTION STAYS IN MOTION AND AN OBJECT AT REST STAYS AT REST<\/b><\/p>\n

This is indisputable science. Therefore, the most effective leaders on the planet know and habitually Take Daily Action <\/b>on their big ideas and goals.<\/p>\n

One of the most powerful life practices you can adopt is that from this day forward, you now have your ACTION journal. You are on a mission to fulfill your ideas.<\/p>\n

Every day, you will set aside 5\u201315 minutes of time to journal the actions you will take on your goals each day BEFORE you get distracted by life.<\/p>\n

Journaling is best typically first thing in the morning, or before you go to bed at night. As you get more practice, you\u2019ll notice you journal throughout the day as the wind shifts and different actions are required.<\/p>\n

I have a personal commitment to take at least five minutes of action each day on my Big Goals and Ideas. A good question to ask yourself each morning or evening is,<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is one thing I could do today to make progress on the idea?\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

I promise you that after working with and interviewing dozens of leaders, their daily actions don\u2019t include constantly responding to everything that comes in via LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, e-mail, phone, or text and firefighting.<\/p>\n

Do the above and the next thing you know, your entire day is gone.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t stop making progress by focusing on big items that take hours to complete. Small actions producing wins (even 5 minutes) are important to grow your energy and confidence!<\/b><\/p>\n

I launched my first residential real-estate development company on 5 minutes to 1 hour of action daily. That company now will probably fund a good part of my retirement ;o)<\/p>\n

FOCUS! Look at something you can do in the short-term, such as:<\/p>\n
