Is there a project or a goal or something you've been working on that could benefit from a deadline that makes you feel a bit uneasy but you know it's achievable?
Shay Doran is back with another riveting instalment of his 30-day challenge in 'Journey To Freedom'. On Day 11, Shay tackles the concept of 'Lead or Gold' deadlines, inspired by marketing expert Russell Brunson. The idea is simple yet intense: imagine a deadline so critical that missing it feels like a life-or-death situation. Shay grapples with this high-stakes approach, sharing his scepticism but also recognising its potential to boost productivity.
He reflects on how setting such pressing deadlines could benefit his own projects, particularly his YouTube content and upcoming masterclasses. Shay offers a balanced view, noting that while this method might not suit everyone, it's worth experimenting with different deadline strategies to see what sticks. He encourages you to find your own 'sweet spot' - a deadline that pushes you just enough to be productive without causing undue stress.
Whether you're part of the 30-day challenge or just looking to improve your time management, Shay's reflections offer valuable insights into making deadlines work for you. Tune in for practical tips, personal anecdotes, and a bit of humour as Shay navigates this intense yet potentially transformative challenge.
