Work Backward
I saw TV special featuring a professional pool player, who sank every ball on the table in a row. He said the way he does it is by figuring out where the cue ball needs to be to sink the last shot, and then works backward from there, planning each shot in reverse.
It got me thinking… what if I used the same tactic? What if, instead of aimlessly struggling to find the next rung of the ladder, hoping for some “break”, I really thought about where I want to end up, and worked backwards to figure out the steps to get there from here.
Where do you want to end up? Now work backwards to where you are now.
What’s your first step?
