🌱 My Q4 goals template

Here are your compressed insights in 3 minutes or less.

🤔 A Well-Defined Problem

I think about this quote often: 

Because there are 2 ways to start anything: 

1. Feeling behind unsure where to begin (harder)

2. Feeling ahead with small clear steps (easier)

Therefore I'd add: 

"A PROJECT well-defined with clear first steps, is also half solved." 

Worth remembering this when planning anything. 

✅ Q4 Goals Template

Speaking of defining projects, great timing as we enter Q4. 

There are a million things I can do in any quarter, but I can’t do them all. 

Here’s my 3-step process for effective planning:

• Define my top 3 categories (in order) by month for easy visualization

• Define WHY for each

• Collapse everything except for top priority for the month

Here’s my template for Q4 that you can copy. 

My #1 thing is to get back into publishing episodes on my podcast. I LOVE connecting and learning, so this is a no-brainer. 

What’s your #1 thing? Hit reply and tell me (or a screenshot of your template). 

🍿 Netflix vs Titkok Effects

Because of short-form media, people say attention spans are dead…but they neglect the elephant in the room. 

Spoiler: the “Netflix effect” dwarfs “Tiktokification.”

Just look at these numbers (they’re wild).

Netflix has only 1/4th the users as TikTok, yet has 7x the watch time.

It’s no wonder why YouTube just announced they’re extending YouTube Shorts from 60 seconds to 3 minutes. 

Which makes a lot of (ad)sense.

Short-form gets short-term attention. 
Long-form gets long-term trust. 🤝
