So have you ever set a goal that felt exciting, maybe even life-changing, only to watch it

fizzle out after, oh, a few weeks or so? It's not because you didn't want a badly enough

or weren't capable. It's often because you didn't have the structure and the support

to make it happen. This kept happening to me over and over

until I took a step back and did a deep dive into the research on everything from goal achievement

to social psychology, excellence, and success. And I ended up developing my own framework

basically to succeed at anything big, anything worth doing. And I called it

success scaffolding, because it is the framework that provides the scaffolding that I needed

to succeed at pretty much anything I set my mind to. And it's the approach that has helped me

accomplish so many things over a period of really decades at this point

from writing a bunch of books to launching companies, media, transforming health,

even things like doubling my daily steps and so much more.

Every year I fold new learnings into my success scaffolding, I update it, I refine it,

and really just tweak and optimize it with

what I have discovered. And this year is no different. And this revised success scaffolding

framework, it's what I want to share with you today in part two of our special January series

on the Good Life Project, new beginnings, redesigning your life in 2025.

So last week, we built a roadmap for the year ahead. If you haven't had a chance to listen,

I highly recommend starting there. It's the perfect foundation for what we're doing today.

But if you don't have time, that's okay too. You can just dive in and we'll talk about how to

really achieve big things. Today we're zooming in to focus on one big, bold goal, something that could

potentially transform your life this year. And I will guide you through success scaffolding.
