1. Reflect (2 min)
What am I over-complicating to avoid actually doing this?
2. Write (5 min)
Maybe it's:
- Researching workout programs instead of doing pushups
- Building productivity systems instead of writing the list
- Waiting for the right tools instead of starting with what you have
- Planning the business for months instead of making the first sale
Here's what's happening: Complexity feels like work. It's not. It's avoidance.
You're building the house before you pour the foundation.
That's the whole game right there.
Write it: What am I over-complicating? What's the core action I could do today?
3. Act (Today)
Strip one goal down to its absolute simplest action. Do it today.
No extra steps. No fancy approach. No optimization layer.
Just the Action
- Want shape? Do 20 squats right now.
- Want to write? Open a blank doc and write 100 words.
- Want to eat better? Eat one vegetable today.
- Want to meditate? Sit still and breathe for 60 seconds.
That's it.
No apps. No tracking system. No philosophical framework about your approach to tracking frameworks.
Just the action.
