The Marq

I'm sure many of you are doing what I typically do around this time of year :think about the new goals for the year. I'm a big fan of making goals really easy to achieve by chunking them into small pieces I know I can do each quarter and even each month. Copyright(c) 2009-2020 TheMarq.com.

Another interesting idea I heard on the The Knowledge Project podcast episode 110 was avoiding timelines for getting through an issue, reaching your goal, or resolving a problem. So, if my goal is to help as many people as I can with my services, setting a timeline of “by the age 60” is unnecessary and may very well lead to disappointment.

My goal for the routine is to get 20% of all activities done that are the most valuable, assuming that 20% gives me 80% of the benefits for achieving what I want (the Pareto Principle - Wikipedia link). These are the tasks that are meant to get me closer to my goals. This is partly to help me focus on my goals, and partly to rant.
