After well over 1,000 hours of coaching with 120+ clients, I can confidently say:
This is the hardest—and most effective—thing I do.
1. Pick a value.
2. Define it clearly.
3. Choose a behavior that proves it—something a third party could confirm.
4. Write a daily yes/no question to track it.
5. Share it with someone who’ll hold you to it.
Example:
Value – Follow-through.
Definition – I keep promises, even the small ones.
Behavior – If I say I’ll send it, I send it—same day.
Question – “Did I follow through on everything I said I’d do today?”
Score: 1 (yes) or 0 (no).
That last step? Boosts follow-through by 95%.
It’s simple. It’s uncomfortable. It works.
This is how we optimize: aligning values with behaviors.
It’s a great weekend to be coachable.
