TLDRThe speech is a motivational talk aimed at encouraging individuals to pursue their goals with determination and specificity. The speaker highlights that many people start the year with big goals but quickly abandon them, specifically by February. In a study of 1,000 people, 94% dropped their goals, but the remaining 6% achieved success through specific strategies. Three main secrets are shared about these "Sixers": First, they take charge by setting their mind on doing something different. Second, they use the law of specification, where they are specific and granular in their goal setting and execution. Third, they adhere to the 0 to 10 rule, which means prioritizing and focusing on the most important tasks each day. The speaker emphasizes starting small, focusing on one thing at a time, and repeating it daily for 30 days to form new habits. This gradual approach helps avoid burnout and allows meaningful, cumulative change over time. Being a "Sixer" is presented as a simple yet life-changing transition, and the audience is encouraged to become part of this successful minority.

    The speaker discusses the phenomenon of people having important personal goals related to health, fitness, mental wellness, finances, relationships, business, or career, but consistently failing to achieve them. A survey of 1,000 people showed that 94% abandoned their goals by February. The speech aims to uncover the secrets of the successful 6% who achieve their goals, focusing on their different mindset and strategies.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:11:56

    Three secrets of the successful 'six percenters' are revealed: 1) They take charge, recognizing their brain's natural resistance to change and conserving energy, thereby pushing themselves to do things differently. 2) They use the 'law of specification', being specific and granular in goal-setting and follow-through. This allows them to achieve a 100% success rate. 3) They apply the '0 to 10 rule', focusing on tasks that are a 10 in importance rather than being busy with lesser-important tasks, which prevents burnout and facilitates progress. The importance of making gradual, focused changes to avoid overwhelming the brain, thus effectively creating new habits, is emphasized.

  • Why do many people fail to change their habits?

    The brain is resistant to change because it uses a lot of energy, making it difficult to adopt new habits all at once.

    Focus on one thing at a time, be specific, repeat it for 30 days to form a new neural pathway in the brain.

  • 00:04:39
    the deal I'm going to keep you super
  • 00:04:42
    stuck doing the same things over and
  • 00:04:46
    over again in business and life without
  • 00:04:49
    even
  • 00:04:50
    noticing you're going to be super stuck
  • 00:04:52
    and miserable but I'll conserve energy
  • 00:04:55
    are you signing the
  • 00:04:58
    deal 9 94% of the people in the world
  • 00:05:02
    don't read the fine print they sign the
  • 00:05:06
    deal the
  • 00:05:08
    Sixers set their mind to do something
  • 00:05:15
    different the second thing that the
  • 00:05:17
    Sixers do
  • 00:05:20
    differently is that they use what I call
  • 00:05:22
    the law of
  • 00:05:25
    specification and the law of
  • 00:05:27
    specification means this
  • 00:05:30
    the more specific you are the more
  • 00:05:33
    granular you are in the way you set your
  • 00:05:37
    goals and in the way you follow
  • 00:05:39
    through the more successful you are so
  • 00:05:43
    let's take going to the gym as an
  • 00:05:45
    example the 94 centers say yeah I'm
  • 00:05:49
    going to go to the gym so much this year
  • 00:05:52
    I'm going to be so fit this is it 94
  • 00:05:56
    percenters the 6centers say okay okay
  • 00:06:00
    I'm going to the gym every day between
  • 00:06:02
    7:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. I am going to do
  • 00:06:06
    this workout routine I'm going to set my
  • 00:06:09
    alarm for 30 minutes earlier I'm putting
  • 00:06:11
    my gym clothes by my bed I'm setting an
  • 00:06:14
    alarm on every single device that I have
  • 00:06:16
    and Jim is my accountability buddy and
  • 00:06:19
    if I can't go out there I'm going to go
  • 00:06:21
    out there the next day and I'm going to
  • 00:06:23
    give myself a 30 minute extra workout
  • 00:06:26
    penalty
  • 00:06:28
    Boom the six percenters using the law of
  • 00:06:32
    specification have 100% success rate the
  • 00:06:38
    more specific you are the more granular
  • 00:06:40
    you are the more you use the law of
  • 00:06:43
    specification the more successful you
  • 00:06:48
    are the third thing the Third Secret of
  • 00:06:51
    the six
  • 00:06:53
    percenters is that they use what I call
  • 00:06:56
    the 0 to 10 rule you you see we live in
  • 00:07:01
    a world that glorifies being busy
  • 00:07:05
    everybody's just so busy you ask anybody
  • 00:07:08
    and they're going to tell you with an
  • 00:07:09
    incredible sense of importance oh my
  • 00:07:12
    gosh I'm so busy I've been running
  • 00:07:15
    around the whole day I didn't even have
  • 00:07:16
    lunch as if being busy equals being
  • 00:07:21
    important or
  • 00:07:24
    successful there's something very
  • 00:07:26
    different that the Sixers do here you
  • 00:07:28
    see in the spin of your day you have a
  • 00:07:31
    lot of things to do too much too many
  • 00:07:34
    things to do you can't do it all the
  • 00:07:38
    mindset of trying to do it all leads to
  • 00:07:41
    burnout so you have things to do
  • 00:07:44
    throughout your day that are of lesser
  • 00:07:46
    importance things that are zero or one
  • 00:07:49
    or two you can delegate them someone
  • 00:07:51
    else can do them they can wait for
  • 00:07:53
    another day but you have things on your
  • 00:07:56
    agenda for the day that are a 10
  • 00:08:00
    those are your most important things to
  • 00:08:02
    do those are your goals the tasks that
  • 00:08:06
    will push you towards the future that
  • 00:08:08
    you want the success that you
  • 00:08:09
    want the
  • 00:08:11
    94ers run around run around doing a lot
  • 00:08:14
    of ones and twos and threes and zeros
  • 00:08:18
    they don't even get to their
  • 00:08:21
    tents the
  • 00:08:23
    Sixers do their tents first they get
  • 00:08:26
    very clear on what their tents are for
  • 00:08:29
    the day and you know what they may do
  • 00:08:31
    just the
  • 00:08:33
    tense do not
  • 00:08:36
    mistake doing doing doing running
  • 00:08:38
    running running for progress It's using
  • 00:08:42
    the 0 to10 rule focusing on the tens
  • 00:08:45
    each and every
  • 00:08:47
    day that pushes you
  • 00:08:50
    forward and let me tell you
  • 00:08:52
    this people get very
  • 00:08:55
    intimidated by making changes in their
  • 00:08:57
    lives the year starts and people say oh
  • 00:09:00
    I made a list of things I'm going to
  • 00:09:02
    make all these changes this year and the
  • 00:09:05
    brain gets
  • 00:09:06
    overwhelmed do not underestimate how
  • 00:09:09
    much effort it is for the brain to do
  • 00:09:12
    something different but let me tell you
  • 00:09:16
    something it's not
  • 00:09:19
    complicated you pick one thing that is a
  • 00:09:23
    10 for
  • 00:09:24
    you you use the law of specification and
  • 00:09:27
    you get really specific and
  • 00:09:30
    granular and you repeat repeat repeat
  • 00:09:34
    the same thing focusing on one thing for
  • 00:09:37
    30 days it takes the brain 30 days to
  • 00:09:41
    start a new neural pathway a new beaten
  • 00:09:43
    path in your brain that automates that
  • 00:09:47
    behavior so don't start five things at
  • 00:09:49
    once six things at one three things at
  • 00:09:52
    pick one thing start Simple Start
  • 00:09:55
    small and it
  • 00:09:57
    works then you'll say wow wow this is so
  • 00:10:00
    cool this actually works let me pick
  • 00:10:02
    another
  • 00:10:04
    thing and you repeat it for 30 days and
  • 00:10:06
    it works now you change two things now
  • 00:10:09
    think about it this way in the spin of a
  • 00:10:12
    year instead of getting excited about a
  • 00:10:14
    lot of things and then dropping them all
  • 00:10:16
    very quickly because it's so
  • 00:10:17
    overwhelming to the brain you pick one
  • 00:10:20
    thing every 30 days now let's say in the
  • 00:10:23
    span of a year you dropped two things
  • 00:10:26
    because life life happens you're not
  • 00:10:28
    perfect fine you dropped two
  • 00:10:31
    things you were still able to
  • 00:10:33
    change 10 things in the span of a
  • 00:10:38
    year healthy wonderful habits that build
  • 00:10:41
    you now think about year two now think
  • 00:10:45
    about year
  • 00:10:46
    three one at a time you automate them
  • 00:10:49
    it's not overwhelming it's not
  • 00:10:52
    complicated becoming a sixer is simple
  • 00:10:55
    and
  • 00:10:57
    lifechanging if you know
  • 00:11:00
    how and I'm going to tell you one more
  • 00:11:02
    thing about the 0 to1 rule when you
  • 00:11:04
    focus on what matters the most instead
  • 00:11:07
    of trying to do it all running around
  • 00:11:09
    running around you prevent burnout so
  • 00:11:12
    many people are burned out just because
  • 00:11:14
    they try to do it all don't try to do it
  • 00:11:17
    all focus on what matters the most get
  • 00:11:21
    really specific and granular and make it
  • 00:11:25
    happen one habit at the
  • 00:11:27
    time I believe
  • 00:11:30
    in your ability to become a sixer to
  • 00:11:34
