The template
Last week, I crossed Milestone.
It took X days. It was gruelling. But it was worth it.
Here are the X steps of my strange journey.
Hope it’s helpful to someone:
1/ SimpleStep1
When you are first getting started trying to Outcome, this is the best thing you can do.
Don’t overthink it.
Don’t make it more complicated than it needs to be.
Just get started—and see where your strange journey takes you.
2/ ProgressStep2
As you get moving, what you end up learning is that:
ConventionalWisdom1 is wrong.
ConventionalWisdom2 doesn’t work.
ConventionalWisdom3 is a waste of time.
In reality, ProgressStep2 is the best thing you can do.
3/ UnconventionalStep3
As soon as I reached Milestone, I hit a roadblock.
I was making progress, but I didn’t know:
How to Question1
How to Question2
Or how to Question3
UnconventionalStep3 changed everything for me.
And here’s why…
4/ UnconventionalStep4
As soon as I started doing UnconventionalStep3, I started to…
SurprisingOutcome1
SurprisingOutcome2
SurprisingOutcome3
Which led to me UnconventionalStep4.
Which led to SurprisingOutcome4.
5/ UnconventionalStep5
It took me a while, but eventually, I experienced a breakthrough.
I realized that the key to Outcome was UnconventionalStep1, UnconventionalStep2, and UnconventionalStep3, compounded over a long period of time.
And X days later, here I am.
I share all of this because I believe you can experience the same sort of transformation in your own life.
And then you’ll have a “strange journey” you can share of your own.
(I’d love to read it.)
