Understanding Your Life's Whirlwind

  • The whirlwind represents the constant, consuming demands and tasks in life that drain your energy.
  • Managing the whirlwind is essential but it cannot take up all your time or you'll never grow.
ADVICE

Balance Time Between Tasks and Goals

  • Allocate no more than 80% of your time to the whirlwind and reserve 20% for your wildly inspiring goals (WIGs).
  • Limit yourself to 1 or 2 WIGs that truly warrant your commitment and time.
ADVICE

Set Goals With Deadlines

  • Set wildly inspiring goals with clear deadlines and measurable outcomes.
  • Goals need a clock and indicators to celebrate winning and avoid perpetual exhaustion.
