00:00:00 — GPS: goal, plan, system, and which of the three is the problem

  • ★★ Ali's GPS strategy (goal, plan, system), which he developed over the last few months and which is not in his book Feel-Good Productivity, applies to building a business, making passive income, starting a podcast or getting married: a goal, a plan of moves to get there, and a system to make sure you follow it. — 00:00:00 · GPS: goal, plan, system, Feel-Good Productivity (book), passive income
  • ★★★ If you are struggling with a goal, Ali says the GPS model shows where: a goal problem (you don't know what you want, or it is wildly unrealistic), a plan problem (your strategy is not effective) or a system problem (you know what to do but are not doing it). — 00:00:00 · GPS: goal, plan, system
