Goals of longer than 100 Days are not good because there
is no urgency to get going! When we set a goal for a year,
KEEP YOUR EYES
we don’t really need to start today because there’s plenty ON THE GOAL AND JUST
more time. Yes?! KEEP TAKING THE NEXT STEP
Goals of less than 100 Days have urgency, but they are
not long enough to accomplish something BIG. Shorter than

100 days and there’s just not enough time to get results from COMPLETING IT
your efforts. Especially if you are doing a tough goal like
writing a book, selling more in your business, losing weight,
saving money, etc, etc.

GOALS
Here are some things to think about:
• If you spend just 15 minutes a day working on your 100 Day
Goal, that’s 25 whole hours. What could you achieve in 25 solid
hours of working on your goal. A lot!
• If you spend just 30 minutes a day working on your 100 Day
ARE THE
FUEL
Goal, that’s 50 whole hours. What could you achieve in 50 solid
hours of working on your goal. Masses!
•H
ow much are you already doing? The 100 Day Goal is about
achieving MORE, so if you’re already selling, say, 25 items in IN THE FURNACE OF
100 days how many MORE can you sell?
•H
ow big does your goal need to be to motivate you to work on ACH IEVM ENT
it? Think of three different sized goals and imagine achieving
each one. Pick the goal that excites you and feels just slightly out
of reach.
• If your goal is a business goal, think about how much you need
to sell to make the money you need to earn from your business.

MICROACTIONS
dresses is motion, going to the market to sell them is ACTION
It’s Action!
Action means that the task takes you directly towards your goal. Tasks

that are not Action are Motion. In business and in life we do lots
of Motion, it’s all the ‘other’ stuff we do. We don’t want to put any

motion on our Microaction List. It’s all ACTION.

SUCC ESS IS THE Microaction every day. Partly because ‘Dripping water wears away
a stone’, but also because doing a Microaction every day turns the
SUM OF SMALL EFFORT S 100 Day Goal into a habit, and when something’s a habit it becomes
a breeze to do!
R E P E AT E D Doing one small action a day sounds easy, but it’s amazing how tricky
DAY IN AND DAY OUT we actually find it! Often we get stuck on what actions we should do
(especially when we’re so short on time that it’s hard to think clearly on
what’s the best next step to take). So having a BIG list of Microactions
to choose from makes picking something to do, easy!

For example

4. Jot down as many different Micro-actions to reach your goal • Sell offline
as you can think of. • Sell more to existing customers

6. Keep going until you have 150. • Exercise more
7. Ta-da! You’ve got a Master Action List! • Eat better
Write your Paths on the ‘Paths’ printable that comes with this Guide.
Quick Tip!
You don’t need to make your list in one attempt! Keep your pad
of paper or our printable handy (on the kitchen bench maybe) and
add to it over a couple of days. THE DIFFERENCE

our goals if we tell people about them. It makes us feel accountable….
we don’t want to lose face. But if you are the private type feel free
to keep your goals to yourself. There’s plenty of evidence to say that
keeping your goals quiet WORKS too!
