Dean Graziosi says to eliminate backup plans and commit fully to your goals. Tell someone, write it down, post it online, say it in the mirror. When you make a decision public and irrevocable, your identity shifts to match it, and backing out becomes harder.
What if we don't give ourselves an out? What's Tony say? If you want to take the island, burn the boats. But if you don't— what if you get rid of the B plan? What if you don't renegotiate with deadlines? Once you decide, tell someone, write it down, put it on the internet, put it in the calendar, tell yourself in the mirror, and you don't want to let yourself down. Identities change when decisions become final. In doing this, no matter what, No matter who gets uncomfortable. Stop thinking, I'm gonna do this, not sure. No, yeah, I'm gonna do it. Maybe. That's a little hard. I'm not sure. What if this is the year you did it even when you were scared?
