The Only Way To Win The Race (A New Year’s Special) w/ Matt Ragland

Consistent planning and clarity are vital for success. If you lack experience in long-term planning, start with short to mid-range goals. Achievable goals often have 70-80% clarity. Overemphasis on 100% clarity can lead to perfectionism.

Focus on three significant projects or "big rocks" at a time. Goals are subjective, so create ones that balance challenge and satisfaction. Consistency with controllable tasks builds confidence and understanding of effective strategies.

Running regular experiments, like in SAS companies, helps identify what works. Consistency brings confidence and a realistic grasp of time requirements. Break larger goals into quarters and prioritize them using the VET score (Value, Ease, Time). The 70-20-10 rule suggests allocating 70% of time to growth, sustaining, and momentum.

Track time in 15-30 minute increments for a week or more to gain awareness and optimize productivity. Understanding how you spend time is crucial for effective planning, deferment, delegation, and time blocking.
