If one works closely with what is been listed on those levels. I think becoming successful will be an easy come. It was well outlined and carefully analysed. Can't wait to go down that road of success

Hi Scott,

I have two goals:

1. Stop smoking
2. Become debt free

I'm on the lowest level for both.

I have never contemplated only smoking some days per week and increasing the days of non-smoking gradually! I have stopped several times but I have always started again. I have followed the route of cutting down gradually over time but haven't been successful using that method. I have quit "cold turkey", usually because I had no choice (e.g. in hospital) and the longest that lasted was a month. When I came home, I started smoking again, only 5 or so a day, but gradually increased over time.

I live in South Africa which presents its own set of challenges and opportunities.

My goal is (1) becoming the best selling author, (2) making more money. I believe your level table breaks it down all well, that my fear seems diminishing. That's great of you.

Thanks for this, my goals are simple
1. To make enough money to retire quite early.
2. Write for the rest of my life after retirement.

Breaking down big goals into small, achievable steps is definitely the key to success – it makes the whole journey feel less overwhelming.

This is thorough.
I also think that nothing worthwhile comes easily. The construction of something lasting requires time and involves "breaking big seemingly impossible goals into a series of very achievable steps." The secret to success is this.
I adore the table to the fullest.
Anticipating the mentorship initiative.

This surpasses the annual contributions of one hundred benefactors. It's a really good plan. My primary objective is to earn enough money to provide a better future for my kids. Working my way up to level 15 would be amazing. At level 4, I suppose, which is not a good place to be. I am really grateful for this.

Looking at this level table is inspiring and everyone should have one for themselves. I love how innovative you are with your ideas. It is outstanding.

This is the most incredible advice i have ever seen... Can't wait to start your mentoring program... I give i can't finish without gaining anything from there.

Wow! So many levels for fitness. It's just one of those goals that is becoming a dead goal for me. Again, I look at the levels and thing I 'should' start now.

You’ve got it right—nothing worthwhile is built overnight. It’s all about patience and putting in the work, step by step. That’s how you tackle those huge, daunting goals—break 'em down into bits you can handle. And hey, I’m glad you’re digging the table! It’s like a visual pep talk, right?

Absolutely! Having clarity about your desires and timing is like having a GPS for life. It’s the fuel that keeps you moving forward. And you’re spot-on—working toward your goals? That’s the secret sauce. It’s like baking a cake—you need the recipe (knowing what you want) and then you roll up those sleeves and mix in the ingredients (working toward it).
Now, let’s talk about those goal levels. It’s like a video game, right? You start with the easy-peasy ones—like collecting coins in Mario. But as you level up, it gets trickier. Suddenly, you’re battling dragons and saving kingdoms. Life’s the same way. You start with the small wins, and before you know it, you’re slaying metaphorical dragons.
So, here’s the deal: know your wants, set your sights on those goals, and then? Well, my friend, it’s time to level up

This experience has given me a new perspective. The levels table showed me that one of my goals, like exercising more, isn't as daunting as I thought because I'm not starting from scratch (level 0). It's a realization that hadn't occurred to me before. Thanks a lot, Scott!

The goals outlined in the table are practical and enjoyable to read about. I plan to implement them in my own endeavors. Breaking large goals into smaller, manageable steps is certainly crucial for success.

I love this idea and analogy. It makes me want to get up right now and go do some work. It lit a fire in me an I am grateful.
