Quote by Fitzhugh Dodson

First you write down your goal; your second job is to break down your goal into a series of steps, beginning with steps which are absurdly easy.

First you write down your goal; your second job is to break

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of setting clear goals and breaking them down into smaller, manageable steps. By first identifying a specific goal, individuals can then strategize and create a roadmap to achieve it. The quote suggests that one should start with small, achievable tasks, even if they may appear absurdly easy at first. This approach helps build momentum, boosts motivation, and gradually propels individuals towards their larger objective. Breaking down the goal into simple steps makes the process less overwhelming and enables a sense of progress and accomplishment along the way.
