<ul><li>Have you found the action? Are you open and willing to search for it?</li><li>Would you actually do the action? Do you enjoy the process, and is it something you enjoy more than other things? Is it a priority for you?</li><li>Could you actually do the action? Do you have the knowledge, the capacity, the tools and the energy to do it?</li><li>And lastly have you shrunk the action down so that you could repeat it forever?

Practical Questions for Reflection

Find the action is important because if you already knew what action to do, you would already be productive.There is productive action out there but it has to be discovered and this requires the willingness and the commitment on your part to find it.

1️⃣ FIND THE ACTION

The term 'forever' is a stress test.It ensures the action is repeatable for, and compatible with, the rest of your life.

4️⃣ FOREVER

The term 'could' is important because it makes you consider whether the action is actually possible for you to do.<ul><li>Are you physically capable of doing it?</li><li>Do you have the right tools & resources?</li><li>Do you have enough energy to do it each day?</li></ul>

3️⃣ YOU COULD DO

Productivity is like movement and if you pass all four stages, you've successfully created a step that you can take each day and if you take a step towards your goal each day, you'll inevitably reach it.
