23
Well, instead of making better decisions and fast decisions, I started having paralysis by analysis.

I will instantly remove my feelings from a decision because
我會立刻將個人情感從決策過程中抽離,因為

67
when something is imperfect versus having that mentality in the workplace because if you know that you aren't prepared for something,
當某件事本身不完美,和你在職場上抱持那種心態是兩回事,因為如果你知道自己對某件事並沒有做好準備,
68
if you know that you don't have experience in doing something, it actually can reduce people's confidence if you're telling them,

74
if i would have told them in that moment

75
that i didn't know what i was doing it would have reduced my credibility

95
while the people you are competing with are deciding today you're already behind it's a little funny to me
當你今天還在猶豫不決的時候,你的競爭對手早就已經超前了,這點讓我覺得有點好笑。
96
that I'm doing a video about speed.
97
Because if you would have talked to me five years ago,
98
I would have thought I was fast at everything until I was around people who did things quickly
99
and was around people who were incredibly successful.
100
And what I learned from being around people who are incredibly successful, they do not wait for anything.
101
And as soon as they have an idea, they execute on it in that moment.
102
One of my favorite times with my business partner, grant cardone we were thinking about launching this new initiative
103
and we had this whole talk about it over a dinner it was probably an hour
104
and a half long discussion
105
and at the end of the discussion he said great send me a link by tomorrow morning
106
so i can start to promote it i was like send you a link by tomorrow morning
107
so you can promote it it's 8 30 at night how am i supposed to send
108
you a link our team has to build the page
109
we have to set everything up what are you talking about send
110
you a link by tomorrow morning he's like okay that's fine and i didn't think anything of it that night.
111
I went to bed and woke up the next morning
112
and saw he had sent it to his team who had created a full -blown page, already had emails.
113
And this was before ChatGPT existed.
114
He had just bypassed my inability to move quickly because he had a team that could move faster than I could,
115
even though it was supposed to be my initiative.
116
And what this taught me is how do I create a team
117
and create a process that will allow an idea to move fast? Because
118
if you believe in idea it has to move fast
119
that's how you gain momentum is the ability to say
120
i want to do this thing how quickly can i move
121
it into the physical universe it's no longer an idea
122
when there's a landing page and when he promoted it the next morning we found
123
that there were thousands of people who were interested in this idea
124
so what did
125
that do it added more momentum into this process we were more excited about this idea the speed changed everything
126
and today it is one of our most profitable programs
127
that we've ever launched all because we moved quickly
128
so what's lesson here speed to market beats perfection launching a
129
minimal viable product aka a link to a landing page creates momentum
130
and user investment making
131
it nearly impossible for slower perfect competitors to catch up to
132
what you're doing one of my favorite quotes from sean parker the co -founder of napster is move fast
133
and break things unless you're breaking stuff you're not moving fast enough.
134
Remember that clarity comes from action.
135
You will never just think of the perfect plan.
136
You will discover it while you're already moving.
137
Lastly, number four, the today rule.
138
What I like to do to make sure I am always following this rule is to ask myself these two questions daily.
139
What can I launch or test today instead of next week?
140
And the second question is what is the smallest step I could take to get data now?
141
Every day counts.
142
When you think about where you want to go and what your targets are.
143
You don't get multiple days to take off where you're just assuming somebody else is making progress on your goals.
144
So when you think about what you're doing today, I like to use this hack.
145
I have a list of all of my core priorities
146
and I start every morning identifying what I can do that day to move the ball forward, even if the ball isn't in my hand.
147
Now I'm not much of a sports analogy fan because I don't know much about sports.
148
I think of it like a football game.
149
Every down counts.
150
You have to get closer and closer and closer, even if it's only three yards.
151
You might think, oh, three yards doesn't really matter when there's a hundred yards that this ball has to go.
152
The three yards matter.
153
And every day when you wake up, if you are not clear on what you have to do in order to move that project,
154
move that initiative forward, you're going to get lost.
155
And instead of making fast decisions, you're going to be slowed down by the person
156
that you think has the ball
157
when really you need to take the freaking ball over and start making moves down the field.
158
So for me, this looks like in every single meeting, I am clear on who is supposed to do what after the meeting.
159
If the meeting doesn't end where there are clear decision points that have to be executed upon,
160
there are clear notes where people have action items and everybody knows what the next steps are.
161
It was a failed meeting.
162
I just wasted my time.
163
The fastest way to waste your time is to lose control of what you can do today.
164
So going back to the today rule, what can you do today to make forward movement?
165
Today is a day that you have to make forward movement because you don't have the luxury of waiting until tomorrow.
166
If you are not making progress across the most important things of your life,
167
schedule a time for yourself every single morning to review the handful of the core priorities and then ask yourself,
168
what am I doing to move this forward today?
169
Do you have to follow up with somebody?
170
Do you yourself have to take action?
171
Do you need to make an outbound phone call?
172
What is it that you can do today?
173
to make it move forward remember that perfectionism is just procrastination with better branding
174
so today take one action towards something that you've been putting off just
175
because it wasn't perfect and tell me in the comments exactly what you did remember
176
that the faster you move the faster you win
177

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
