To collapse time and reach goals faster, first get crystal clear on where you are and where you're going. Then build a baseline plan. The real speed comes from constantly updating that plan in real time, like switching from printed MapQuest directions to live Google Maps that adjusts for traffic and shortcuts.

You're gonna click the button and it's gonna get a pin on your current location. Once again, if the current location is 2 miles off, it'd be pretty hard to get started. Can you imagine you're looking at it and it's just a little bit off? Like, wait, that— so it tells you to turn left on Bell and you don't see Bell. What the hell? And so you need a pretty precise representation of where you're at and where you want to go. And that's the clarity piece. So We all want to collapse time, which we must have certainty to do first, and we must have clarity to get certainty. So the, the process is clarity first. Where am I at? Where do I want to be? Do the work, get as precise as you can. Certainty is like printing off the MapQuest directions back in the day, right? You just need that, like, okay, this— I understand that these roads will close and traffic and the route will change. It will. But we at least need to know, okay, I know I'm going this way, I'm pointed in the right direction. And then the collapsing time is really like shifting your, uh, MapQuest print-off to a Google Maps that pings satellites all the time. It's the iterations and the adjustments. It's the insider knowledge. It's the friend that knows the back alleys. It's the, you know, all the ways, uh, Oh yeah, your buddy knows the cops, so go ahead, go 90 through here, you're fine. You know, like, those are all things that help you collapse time. And the ability, like Google Maps, to ping the satellite and check, because I made this plan 3 hours ago and things have changed since then. So the, the ability to iterate and adjust in real time when roads close, when traffic is bad,
