change your question change your life when it comes to planning your life I want to get you to learn to ask three questions now and the first one is not what am I going to do and how many understand why now say I I the question you want to ask yourself is what do I want What's My outcome what's my result the word RPM the first one is to get you focused on the target the target is not the activity the activity can change if what the what's the result I'm after if you know exactly
what it is you really want what you desire what you're really after Clarity is power the more clear you are and specifically what you want the faster your brain can get you there but if you're generally saying things like what do I want well you I want more money fine here's a dollar get out of here did you achieve the outcome yeah when you're that General you may be you think you're not getting your goal you are the way you language your goal the way you think about it you're receiving it you know you know
I you know I want to feel a bit better I want to lose some weight fine you lost the pound you're done cuz your brain's like a Servo mechanism and a bomb and a missile the old days you shoot a missile and the target was going and if you missed the trajectory you missed it today what happens when the missile's not on course what happens it locks on the heat signature what does it do it moves and follows it that's the way your brain is if it knows the outcome if it knows the result so
RPM starts with I got to know the result this is a results planning system the rapid planning method you can think of it as a results planning system I need to know the result I'm after before I ever ask myself what to do that takes more time but it's worth it now for time sake I'm not going to do this with you right now but I'll tell you what I do when I've taught this to people and I've got full weekend to do this in just give you a picture if I asked you right now
to write out your name your full name now some of you abbreviate your signature but write out your full name in cursive go and do that one time write your full name and cursive I can't even use the word cursive is that really the word people still use means in handwriting I guess but incursive just write it out full name because you can do this later on now if I had you get with a partner and you can try this later if you want I'm just going to tell you because I don't want to take
the time because we have such limited time today and I have your partner say to you with a stopwatch here okay ready and I go go and you write it out and you tell me when you're done I go stop I write down how long that was so let's say you wrote out your signature and it took 5 Seconds and I say ready write it out ready go you tell me you're done stop and I write down 5 seconds I have to do that 10 times you'll find in the beginning you'll be let's say 6
seconds I'm making it up everybody's signature is different and you probably might get down to as little as 5 seconds if you have like an iPhone you could do it as a digital stopwatch you could see the mlecs then I say to you I want you guys to write every other letter in cursive other words you're going to write half as many letters how long do you think it would take to do it half as much time most of you it will take twice as much time in the beginning and then eventually what's interesting is
if I do it 10 times and the last two are three and this makes no logical sense and again I don't want to take the time to have all of you do this 10 times 10 times 10 times but you go do it on your own I'll just tell you the result in most cases even though you're doing half as many letters you cut it by 2/3 of the time there's something happens when you break an old pattern and you do it fresh your brain over the years has learned ways to move more rapidly since
when you did your original signature and you'll do it in a third the amount of time it'll take twice as much at first and then it she'll cost you a third amount of time now let me tell you why I'm telling you this the system I'm calling the rapid planning method by the time I show it to you you're going to go this takes more time than just making my to-do list it will when when will it take more time when initially but once you get it in your nervous system it'll take you less time
because your brain will be thinking in outcomes and not activities and when you think in terms of outcomes and that activities pretty soon some of the activities in your list you don't even need to do to get the outcome you find a better way to get the outcome quicker now how do you do that you ask three questions question one what is my result what is My outcome what is that I really truly want from this if you're going back next week and you say this next week what are the most important what outcomes for
me to get this week in my business and you just write those outcomes out not your action items the out outcomes you if you do that and nothing else you'll be ahead of the game and if you just keep looking at those outcomes every day how am I doing on that outcome your brain will come up with ways to get to that outcome I promise you focus on outcomes not on activities action for most people activities most people may mistake movement for achievement they mistake action items and TOD do for achievement we're after the achievement
are you with me on this yes or no yes it's a different way of thinking and I think all of you inherently have it but if you make this ritualized just like the things you've learned this week they're all great but if you don't systematize them they'll work when you do them but if you systematize them right and you see like Mr hullman here where he goes in and just does it and does it makes sure it's been done again or what you've seen chat do or what I do you just do it over and
over again you don't miss it now the results are geometric so I want to get you to systematize the thinking whether you do it visually the way I'm going to show you or not so first question what's the result I'm after what's the ultimate result what do I want out of this week out of this thing out of my business out of my life out for my body and you want to be as what as possible when you describe that outcome that result as what as clear and specific as possible generalities will confuse you so
it might take you longer than just writing down call soand so to think if I'm calling my my son I'm going to call jerck or I'm going to call my brother this is what goes through my head before I call him always What's My outcome cuz I don't want to just call him I want jerk to feel loved by his dad or I'm thinking about what my outcome I've got to talk to him about this thing that's out there I got to make sure I get through to him on this because I want to guide
him and move him in this Direction that's why I want to be as his father I want to I don't want to just chitchat I can do that too so if you think before every phone call before every time you're planning your day and you think before you have any meeting what do you think the first thing I ask of anyone when we sit down in a meeting is okay what are your what are your outcomes what what are the outcomes for this meeting first thing I want to know because if I know the outcomes
guess what a lot of meetings they're done pretty quick CU if I know the outcome you don't have to go through all the activities to sell me on it just that's your outcome how do you want to do it sounds good to me rock that's how you make a meeting productive I know a meeting's productive not by the hours or time sometimes it takes longer to the outcome than you want but I'm going to get the outcome that's by the way what you see with me on stage that's why my times vary is based on
an outcome I'm going to get that outcome I don't give a damn whether it's the right time or not I want to do it in that time but I must deliver the outcome how many get that and by the way how many you like to have your company focused on outcomes results and not activity say I people say all the time well did you get that done well you know I left them an email I I I left them a voicemail I've sent him three emails how many times you heard that when that happens with
me I'm like ah you know but I don't show it I just like really wow that's fascinating we'll explain our about our culture it's about getting the result so I can help you if you can't figure another way to do it but there are maybe 12 other things we might want to do maybe they don't have the answer maybe somebody else can give us the answer the outcome was to get this information not to leave an email or 12 or three voicemails that will not do any of us any good how many follow now whether
you get the outcome or not whether you get that result will be based first do you have clarity
