What problem do you solve? Brian wants to help people accomplish more of what they want in less time. Which means he helps people with the execution dilimia.

Show Notes:

  • All the new processes and plans are nothing without execution.
  • Busy doesn’t always equate to effective. It’s important to focus on the things that get stuff done.
  • Brian’s book, The 12 Week Year, helps people focus on a set time frame. Focusing on the smaller time frame as a year helps create a healthy sense of urgency to get more stuff done.
  • It can be hard to switch to the 12 week year because we are so used to being annualized.
  • Realize you have a limited capacity. Less is more. The more you take on the more chance you have at mediocrity in those areas. Focus on a few areas and it can be life changing.
  • If you think of 12 weeks as a quarter, your mind tells you that you have 4 chances to get the goal done.
  • When we think of things in an annual frame, we think we have all the time to finish with what we want.
  • Scoring the execution is powerful in that it measures actions and not outcome. Our daily actions create our future.
  • Measurement helps you determine what is working.
  • The first thing you need to consider is to know what you want. That is a vision question.
  • The second thing is what matters most. That is a planning question.
  • Also, turn you phone off. You don’t have to have it with you all of the time. Give yourself some margin. Give yourself some deep thought time. Take a breath.
