[EP 80] Sue delves into the power of getting things done even when lacking motivation, drawing insights from the work of psychologist Steve Linvinson. She discusses the concept of a follow-through infrastructure, emphasising the importance of clear intentions, turning up the heat to create accountability, and removing obstacles that hinder progress.

Sue shares practical strategies such as setting real consequences, dissecting tasks to focus on manageable parts, and enlisting an accountability buddy to maintain momentum. Through anecdotes and personal reflections, she encourages you to take action, make public declarations, and embrace the mindset of cheetahs who always run as fast as they can

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Creating a system to ensure tasks are completed, including setting clear intentions, turning up the heat, and having accountability measures in place.
• By identifying and eliminating the aspects of tasks that cause resistance or procrastination, individuals can streamline their workflow.
• Having someone to hold you accountable and apply pressure can significantly increase productivity and ensure tasks are completed.
