Now all the New Year madness has passed it’s safe to come out and start thinking about how to make 2014 go your way.
There’s an interesting article over on Steven Pressfield’s site which you might like to look at:
The concept of the Foolscap comes from my friend Norm Stahl—one of my mentors—who once said to me “Steve, God made a single sheet of Foolscap to be exactly the right length to hold the whole outline of a novel.” So, the concept of the Foolscap Method is to conceive of your enterprise, whatever it is you’re trying to do, your ambition in a boiled down form that can be put on a single page, so that you boil it down to its absolute fundamentals, and you take it from A to Z. The whole thing is right there on one page, and I think it’s an absolute great way, Stelios, to divide a year.
Planning your year on a single sheet of paper (A4, come on Steve) as if you were planning a novel or a film – you are the hero, resistance tries to, well, resist you and your year becomes a three act {comedy, drama, tragedy} whatever. It’s a neat idea.
