Goal

Lay out one unbroken 5-year domino chain from your someday life down to this week's single action.

Source principle

Domino Effect + Purpose, reverse-engineered: a five-year chain only topples if each year is set up to knock down the next. : from The One Thing by Gary Keller.

    Write your someday life goal at the top. One sentence.
