  Summary: To achieve more in a shorter time, focus on consistent execution, replace annualization with periodization, create an emotional connection to the outcome, and have a compelling vision for the future. Great work as always, thanks Ali!

  3 ideas:<br>- the difference between high performers and low ones is the execution gap<br>- change from annualization to peridoisation to utilize the deadline effect<br>- have a clear vision of the future which strongly emotional connected

  If you don&apos;t have a vision of the future which is significantly better than your current state, there is NO reason for you to ACT in a way that pulls you towards that future! Brilliant!

  Another content creator brought up a good point as like the main difference between 12 week year vs quarterly planning is timeline. Basically the 12 week year can start 10/27/2024 . You&apos;re not stuck waiting for January 2025 to start a goal. You&apos;re not stuck on a calendar timeline, you can just start anytime.

  find this book fascinating, when I embraced a 6-week work cycle, with one off, I got WAY more done and was more relaxed

  I&apos;ve been implementing 12 Week Year for my 2024. First 12 Week Year has been focused on &quot;Skill Acquisition&quot;. Highly suggest focus on week by week milestones. You can easily fall into the same mental trap as &quot;Oh I have the whole year&quot;. But in this case its &quot;Oh I have 12 weeks&quot;.

  Thanks to his free workshop in April, I was finally able to ORGANIZE MY WHOLE HOUSE in 2.5 months! It&apos;s been a MESS for 15 years...cat pee and hoarding tendencies and ALL that nasty mess. ALL CLEANED UP and easy to care for. I also lost 10 pounds. I am eagerly awaiting the next one this weekend.

  Ali, this might be the best video you have produced on your channel. You have a “teachers mind” that can take a concept and talk about it in many different ways, making it completely clear on multiple levels.<br><br>I have created 5 multi-million dollar businesses over the past 25 years - all based on your takeaways from the 12 Week Year. Being self-aware is the single most effective way to to keep a clear vision of your future &amp; what you spend your time &amp; energy on.<br><br>Bottom line is I enjoy following your growth and the “cool things” you impart to all of your followers. Keep it up!

  I break personal commitments into three month “Seasons”: Spring (FMA), Summer (MJJ), Fall (ASO), Holidays (NDJ). &nbsp;I focus on certain things in each season, which helps me define the goals for that season. For example, “Holidays” includes Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years, so my goals for that month mostly focus on relationships and other areas will get shifted into maintenance mode for a bit. I realized this was happening organically so I just leaned into it and it’s worked well for me.
