Happier and More Effective in 5 Minutes a Day Do you ever feel stuck or stagnant? You're busy, but are you really seeing results from your efforts? We spin our wheels all week but don't always have much to show for it. It's frustrating, and frankly, it's exhausting. The bad news is it's also typical. In our mind, we have these great visions of what we want to accomplish and where we want to go. But day to day, we get bogged down with distractions, other people's agendas, and busywork. And then we wonder why we're not getting anywhere! It's like treading water and expecting to get to the other side of the pool. The Progress Journal offers a simple but purposeful way to plan out your most important work--and track your results--so that your effort is never wasted. How The Progress Journal Works In a decade of studying productivity methods and "hacks", I've found that just a handful of keystone habits tend to make the biggest impact on my personal productivity. Those are the habits I've baked into this journal, and the ones I'm confident will have you feeling better and more productive about your work right away. Those keystone habits are: Setting short-term "sprint" goals, and breaking those down into the smallest actionable steps. Identifying your top 1-3 priorities each day and measuring your progress on those. Practicing gratitude. Establishing and tracking too-small-to-fail "micro habits". Identifying and tracking your Key Performance Indicators. It's not a huge time commitment or massive lifestyle shift. In fact, using this journal should take less than 5 minutes a day. Why Progress? I'm obsessed with progress. To me, progress means forward motion, or actively taking the steps to improve each day. It's one thing we can control. And progress is universal; everyone can make progress toward their goals in some meaningful way, however small the steps may seem. It turns out I'm not alone either. We're wired to seek progress; psychologists have found it to be a key factor in our overall happiness. Even Tony Robbins calls it the "1-word secret to happiness," telling CNBC, "I always tell people if you want to know the secret to happiness, I can give it to you in one word: progress." My Guarantee If you follow the guidelines and prompts in this journal, I guarantee you'll feel more satisfied and productive with your work after just 28 days. If you don't, just send me a note (my contact info is at the end of the book), and I'll buy the journal back from you, no questions asked. Ready? Hit the "Buy Now" button and let's get started!
