There are few things as powerful as two people locked arm and arm marching toward the same goal. To up your chances of success, get a success buddy, someone who’ll keep you accountable as you cement your new habit while you return 88 THE COMPOUND EFFECT the favor. I, for example, have what I call a “Peak-Performance Partner.” Every Friday at 11 a.m. sharp, we have a thirty-minute call during which we trade our wins, losses, fixes, ah-has, and solicit the needed feedback and hold each other accountable. You might seek out a success buddy for regular walks, runs, or dates at the gym, or to meet to discuss and trade personal development books.

Think Addition, Not Subtraction When I interviewed Montel Williams for SUCCESS, he told me about the strict diet he maintains because of the disease that affl icts him, multiple sclerosis. Montel has adopted something called “The Add-in Principle,” and I think it’s a wildly effective tool for anyone with any goal.

let’s map out your process for achieving the goals you’ve decided upon. This is the doing process—or, in some cases, the STOP-doing process. What stands between you and your goal is your behavior. Do you need to stop doing anything so the Compound Effect isn’t taking you into a downward spiral? Similarly, what do you need to start doing to change your trajectory so that it’s headed in the most benefi cial direction? In other words, what habits and behaviors do you need to subtract from and add to your life? Your life comes down to this formula: YOU ¼ CHOICE + BEHAVIOR + HABIT + COMPOUNDED = GOALS (decision) (action) (repeated action) (time).

I want you to publicly declare the goal you have for the week in the comments. This will help us achieve our goals together as a team of individuals. It is the ultimate hack to accountability and will help you progress through the course and further along with building your online business. This post will serve as a promise to yourself. In next week's post, you will be able to declare you completed your goal and can make your next goal for that week. Here are the instructions: If you achieved your goal from last Monday, I want you to start your post this week with "I crushed it 🚀" followed by your goal for this week. It's always important to celebrate the small wins :) If this is your first Monday Motivation post, just declare your goal with "I will achieve/complete XYZ by next Monday" Be specific and make sure the object of your goal is entirely under your control, not dependent on others or the environment around you. Let's win together! And let this serve as a reminder that the only way to fail is to give up.
