Why are keeping stats important?

Objectivity.

It’s one thing to think intuitively about how you are doing. It’s another to get your eyes opened about how well you are doing or to get your eyes opened on how not well you are doing.

Guessing does not lead to predictable outcomes. Doing things in hope that it will create a positive outcome without objectively tracking the positive outcomes won’t lead to positive outcomes.

Guessing leads to erratic results. Erratic results leads to frustration, confusion, hopelessness, chaos.

If you want to move onward and upward, you have to stare the facts in the face and then do something about them. Hopefully the facts are eye opening enough to where it lowers your activation threshold and causes you to course correct.

But if you aren’t tracking, you won’t know when or how to course correct.

You’ll continue to guess.

Guessing is what got you here in the first place.

So get the facts, set the goal, set the mini goals, create the plan, execute the plan, recheck the facts, move towards the goal faster.

Close the gap.
