PROGRAM
A. Put your goal in the above format. If you need help email me. On one side of the paper list the Benefits of Success and on the other side list Costs of Failure. Take the whole day.
B. Write down all the small practical steps you will need to reach your goal. Some goals will have very detailes steps while others may have only a few.

QUESTION
