What is a “Next Action”?
“If we attend continually and promptly to the little that we can do, we shall ere long be surprised to find how little remains that we cannot do.” — Samuel Butler, nineteenth-century novelist
Key Points:
- The Next Action is the next specific, concrete thing you can do now to move a project forward.
- You don’t have to know everything to move forward, just the next step.
- To keep yourself from feeling overwhelmed, track your projects and tasks separately.
- Focus on completing the Next Action, and you’ll eventually and inevitably complete the entire project.
Questions for Consideration:
- Make a list – what projects are you currently working on?
- For every project on your list, what’s the very next action you could take right now that would move the project forward?
