Based on one of the many courses that he teaches, Mark has offered us a few helpful tips that will certainly simplify the process of making any dream of yours come true!

2) From there, you need a tool to “make your to do list exist in time.” This could be in daily schedules in your analog notebook or on a digital calendar. Processing your “external brain” projects and tasks means scheduling them.

3) Lastly, I think it’s important to track the “key performance indicators” for any goal you’re pursuing. For fitness, this could be weights lifted or waist measurements. For business, it could be email opt-in’s or revenue.
