Try this recipe for success:
Sprinkle your big goals and dreams in with your everyday to-do lists. I think it makes the ideas seem more obtainable and more integrated into your life, when “launch a satellite to Mars” and “open a bowling alley” are alongside of “take down storm windows” and “fill bike tires with air.” It’s just another project you’re going to work on this weekend.
Even more effective, of course, is to dice the major goal into smaller tasks and add the smaller chunks to your to-do list.
Add a dash of motivation, a dollop of determination, and blend.
Season to taste.
Enjoy!
