7. I FOCUS MORE ON KEY ACTIVITIES THAN OUTCOMES.

Though at first glance this aspect may sound like a repeat of point 1 (schedule your priorities), it in fact broadens that point in three ways.

First, key activities are not strictly limited to the handful of priorities you had scheduled for workplace performance but include other important actions extending into all of life’s sectors as well:

•Making the first move to apologize to a spouse even though the desired outcome—completely restored marital harmony—may not be evident for some time to come.

•Weighing in after dieting with discipline for ten days only to realize you gained two pounds, yet deciding to trust the process with the belief that the outcome will take care of itself as long as you keep doing the right things.

•While not yet seeing any immediate correlation between an online course you are taking and actual results, you persist with your learning, knowing you are building a deeper knowledge foundation that will pay massive dividends throughout your future.

BIG Bullet: Don’t confuse the scoreboard for the game.

Furthermore, this aspect includes your second- and third-tier tasks as well as your scheduled priorities. These may not be the priorities, the best things, but they are still high-leverage actions you must perform daily with excellence and consistency to regain, sustain, or increase progress and growth.

Lastly, this aspect emphasizes that evaluating a day’s success on outcomes should occur secondarily. Primarily you will measure the day’s success on the key activities you engaged in throughout your rigorous daily routine that are most predictive of creating the right outcome.
