Introduction
Every single outcome in life is the result of a process. Therefore you can create clarity and eliminate anxiety around a goal, by defining the process that inevitably leads to the result, and fully committing to the required work.
To be clear, goals are still required to provide context for what the process should look like, but the improvement of the actual process should be the goal on a day to day basis.
Additionally, you will want to define the desired results and Inevitable Success process from as much of a big-picture, long-term perspective as possible.
The foundational principle Inevitable Success means that in every situation you should always focus on engaging in the process that guarantees your desired long-term results, instead of focusing on the achievement of arbitrary short-term results/goals.
A few examples of Inevitable Success processes vs typical goals:
1 Continually improve the ratio of value-added/non-value added work vs. Goal of corporate cost reduction
2 Learn and apply 1 new piece of job-relevant knowledge per day vs. Goal of getting a promotion
3 Continually improve personal income/expense ratio vs. Goal of earning six figures
4 Eat 80% vegetables, 20% protein each day vs. Goal of losing 20 pounds
5 Continually improve as individuals and partners in a relationship vs. Goal of finding the “perfect” person
6 Never miss a workout vs. Goal of lifting X pounds
