ITL147: How to Refine Your Methods and Accelerate Your Success

On this week’s episode, I answer a listener question on how to turn big powerful thoughts into smaller, concise statements so they can be clearly communicated to others.

Before getting into that, we have a quick announcement.

• There are not a whole whole lot of opportunities for ticketed events to hear me speak.
• Crossroads Church in Oklahoma City is holding the 2014 Leadership Conference with Jon Acuff, Dr. Mark Rutland, and myself on September 26^th, 2014. 

We’ve all heard the statements:

• Average people compare themselves with other people.
• High achievers compare themselves with their potential.
• There is a clue in that statement as to what we should be doing to take these big ideas and turn them into little steps.
• Most of us are so consumed with the little steps that we hope the big thing will manifest itself. 

It is a common mistake for people to allow methods to determine their possible results.

• I urge you to turn this idea on its head.
• If you want to be clear and concise with those little things and create a huge picture, you need to determine the best possible result you can achieve.
• Once you have that clearly defined, you can quit thinking about it so hard. Now you can go back and devise the methods that will take you there.
