the NEW murphy's law

As in MAKING things go right.

Of course, the first step toward doing that is to stop doing them the unproductive, wrong way.  The ultimate no-brainer.

Two steps, just two.  Commit energies & actions, not just yada yada yada words, to a worthy goal.  That means knowing what needs to be done, figuring out how to do it & the necessary resources, knowing what I need to STOP doing or do less of to clear the time for the new actions (emptying out the vessel before refilling).  That's step #1.

#2 is simple - do it.  Follow through.  All the way to completion.  Loud cheers & celebration, then onto the next.

If only simple was also easy.  It's not.  Which is why it helps to know that Step #1 has an all-important, unmentioned sub-step ~ when I get off course, as happens to most people, just go back to the original goal, honor my original commitment & then recommit.  However many times it takes to complete the goal.
