  SPEAKER_01: Welcome back to The Sweet Spot with Dr.

  SPEAKER_01: Derek Sweet, a board certified psychiatrist specializing in sports and performance.

  SPEAKER_01: In the Sweet Spot, we explore what it takes to stay steady and perform when the pressure is on and the moment matters.
• 0:17
  SPEAKER_01: Stay tuned for Dr.

  SPEAKER_01: Sweet's Take Action Tuesday.
• 0:25
  SPEAKER_00: Well, today's topic is about planning.
• 0:29
  SPEAKER_00: Planning is important.
• 0:31
  SPEAKER_00: It's really critical that we have some idea of what we want to do and some roadmap that we're going to use to get there.
• 0:40
  SPEAKER_00: Now, planning, while important, should not consume us.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_00: We never want to be in a position where we're waiting for the perfect plan to come together before we take action.
• 0:54
  SPEAKER_00: In the scheme of life, getting things done is about action.
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_00: Action is king.
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_00: I'll say that again.
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: In the scheme of life, getting what we want is about action, and action is king.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_00: So let me tell you briefly how we coach individuals around getting something done.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_00: Actually, we don't start from the very beginning of what they want, we start with the end point.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: What do you want in the next five years?
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_00: Once you're able to answer that question, the question then becomes what can I do within this next year to achieve that goal?
• 1:37
  SPEAKER_00: Once you have that answer, the next question is then what can I do within the next three months or so to achieve my one-year goal?
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_00: Once you have that answer, then ask yourself, what can I achieve within the next month to get to my three-month goal, and so on.
• 1:58
  SPEAKER_00: You may want to even go down to well, what can I do within the next two weeks to get to my one-month goal, and what can I do within the next week to get to my two-week goal, and so on and so forth, until you get right down to the day.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_00: The bottom line is that you must take action once you have a sense of what it is that you want to do, and then don't sweat the small stuff.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: Work on one aspect of the plan at a time.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_00: There is a saying that General Patent once uh made famous, and the saying is that you cannot execute a plan next week and think that you're gonna get anything done.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_00: Basically, a poor plan violently executed right now is still better than a perfect plan that has never happened.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: Take action today and take one small step forward.
• 3:05
