- You should set targets for yourself that are 10X greater than what you believe you can achieve and
- You should take actions that are 10X greater than what you believe are necessary to achieve your goals. The biggest mistake most people make in life is not setting goals high enough.
Four Degrees of Action
Most people fail only because they are operating at the wrong degree of action.
There are four choices or say degree of action:
- Do nothing
- Retreat
- Take normal levels of action
- Take massive action.
The First Degree of Action
“Doing nothing” is exactly what it sounds like: no longer taking actions to move forward in order to learn, achieve, or control some area.
The Second Degree of Action
“Retreaters” are those who take actions in reverse—probably in order to avoid negative experiences that they imagine will come as a result of taking action.
The Third Degree of Action
People who take normal levels of action are probably the most prevalent in our society today. This is the group that appears on the surface to be taking the necessary amounts of action and to be “normal.”
The Fourth Degree: Massive Action
Massive action is actually the level of action that creates new problems—and until you create problems, you’re not truly operating at the fourth stage of action
When you are taking massive action, you aren’t thinking in terms of how many hours you work. When you start operating at the fourth degree of action, your mindset will shift and so will your results.
While most people operate with only three degrees of action-no action, retreat, or normal action-if you’re after big goals, you don’t want to settle for the ordinary. To reach the next level, you must understand the coveted 4th degree of action. This 4th degree, also know as the 10 X Rule, is that level of action that guarantees companies and individuals realize their goals and dreams.
The 10 X Rule unveils the principle of “Massive Action,” allowing you to blast through business cliches and risk-aversion while taking concrete steps to reach your dreams. It also demonstrates why people get stuck in the first three actions and how to move into making the 10X Rule a discipline. Find out exactly where to start, what to do, and how to follow up each action you take with more action to achieve Massive Action results.
