Summary
Success is not just about knowing what to do. It's about doing it.
Information, plans and goals will not get you where you want to go. Nor will willpower. Success is about something bigger.
To succeed at anything worth doing, you must make key shifts in your environment, mindset and community that "turn on" the actions needed for game-changing results.
I call this "Success Scaffolding." It applies to everything, from weight loss to business, and relationships to careers.
In today's episode, instead of our traditional guest conversation, I'm sharing and in-depth walk-through of my "8P Success Scaffolding™" framework.
Every element, every step, nothing held back. Why? Because it is that time of year when millions commit to big, new, deeply-meaningful goals, only to walk away or fail by the time we hit February. Not because we don't want it badly enough. Not because we're not smart enough. But, because we do not have our Success Scaffolding in place.
This is my New Year's offering. I shared it for the first time in 2017, but have continued to research and develop it since then. And, this year, you'll discover a new, greatly expanded version. It is about helping you make this year different, bridging the gap between hope and reality.

| 0:00.0 | Today's podcast is going to be a little bit different. |
| 0:06.4 | So it's the beginning of the year. |
| 0:09.8 | And for the last two years on the podcast, the very first episode of the year has been |
| 0:16.5 | me not interviewing a guest or in conversation, but sharing what I call success scaffolding. |
| 0:24.4 | This is a really powerful approach to building what you need internally and externally to |
| 0:29.8 | accomplish almost anything. |
| 0:32.6 | And both of the last two years, that one episode has kind of exploded with interest. |
| 0:39.5 | So I have spent a solid chunk of time over the last 12 months revising, expanding, testing |
| 0:46.6 | and optimizing this framework. |
| 0:48.8 | And there's some really cool new awakenings, ideas, tools and powerful guidance to offer |
| 0:55.7 | you what started out as the seven peas has now become eight peas. |
| 1:01.0 | And I am going to share this entire framework with you today because I know as we turn |
| 1:06.6 | the page on a new year so often, we look at this as a moment to sort of stark fresh, |
| 1:12.3 | to start clean, to think about the big things that we want to happen in our lives, in our |
| 1:16.6 | work, in our relationships, in our health and make big goals, big visions. |
| 1:21.0 | Sometimes we call those resolutions. |
| 1:23.2 | Sad thing is the vast majority of those fail miserably within a matter of weeks, if not |
| 1:28.8 | days or even hours. |
| 1:30.9 | This is about what you can do to make that different this year, to actually be able to bring |
| 1:39.9 | into your mind the thing that you want so much to happen. |
| 1:44.6 | Which is differently and actually make it happen, maybe for the first time ever. |
| 1:50.3 | That is where we're going in today's episode. |
