Not only does this method help you achieve your goals, but it also teaches you ways to focus on what matters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a brief overview of what you can read about in this text, which includes:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>RPM definition<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to create an RPM plan (+ Example)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>RPM personal observations and thoughts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"what-is-the-rapid-planning-method-rpm\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the Rapid Planning Method (RPM)?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tonyrobbins.com\/rpm-system\">Rapid Planning Method<\/a>, as its creator Tony Robbins points out, is <strong>a system of thinking<\/strong> \u2014 not a time management technique per se.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a nutshell, RPM helps you stay focused on a particular outcome by guiding you through different steps to make it happen. Instead of doing more and more, the emphasis is on deciding precisely what to do and doing it right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The RPM system really does change the way you think about your desired outcomes \u2014 but, in a new and eye-opening way. Tony Robbins believes people adopt a wrong attitude about the things they must or should do, right from the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, you want to complete a task, but you\u2019re only thinking about how demanding it will be or how long it will take. The RPM system <strong>shifts your focus on what you want to achieve<\/strong>, i.e. the final outcome. This way, you can brush aside all the nuisances and problems that come along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I started writing this blog post, the first thing that came to mind were those war movies in which soldiers endured hardships just by thinking about their homes, spouses, and children, by looking at the photos of their loved ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what kept them going \u2014 focusing on what they really wanted, their final goal \u2014 to come back home to their loved ones. Everything in between didn\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Tony himself says: <strong>Focus equals power<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"breaking-down-the-rapid-planning-method-rpm\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breaking down the Rapid Planning Method (RPM)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though RPM means <em>Rapid Planning Method<\/em>, the acronym <strong>also stands for<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>R<\/strong>esults-oriented \u2014 Explains <strong>WHAT<\/strong> you really want to achieve (<em>What is my final goal?<\/em>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>P<\/strong>urpose-driven \u2014&nbsp; Helps you find a reason <strong>WHY<\/strong> you want to do something (<em>What are my reasons and motives for doing that?)<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>M<\/strong>assive action plan \u2014 Tells you <strong>HOW<\/strong> to do it <em>(What do I need to do to accomplish this? What\u2019s my plan?)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, before you start realizing a plan, ask yourself said questions \u2014 but bear in mind that the <strong>sequence of these questions is critical<\/strong>. No matter if you are planning your daily activities, a project, or a long-term goal \u2014 start by asking yourself these three questions following this specific order. According to Tony, when you know the desired result first, followed by a compelling reason for doing something, you will figure out how to pull it off eventually. That is the only way to succeed at achieving your goal \u2014 to know what, why, and how you are going to do it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"rapid-planning-method-example\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid Planning Method example<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s incorporate the RPM system into one real-life example.

What you need to do here is <strong>create an identity term<\/strong> for each specific result you are after. It shifts your attention from all the dreary tasks you must complete and the sacrifices you must make to reach the outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To go back to our example, working on your time management is not something that happens over night. It\u2019s something that requires continuity and an iron will to break old habits and form new routines. To begin with, don\u2019t think of yourself as a <em>procrastinator<\/em> or <em>laggard.<\/em> Instead,<em> <\/em>shape your identity in a way that will give you motivation and help you stay on track with your final goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of something empowering, such as the <em>master of time<\/em>, for instance. When you think of yourself as the <em>master of time<\/em>, you forget about all fears and obstacles that are standing between you and your success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your newly shaped identity will change how you feel about yourself, keep you motivated, and, most importantly \u2014 shift your focus on the final outcome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-5-review-your-progress\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step #5: Review your progress<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least \u2014 don\u2019t forget to celebrate your accomplishments and review your progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe you can measure your success by looking back at the things you used to manage to accomplish and all the things you get done now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will motivate you to move further and maybe even turn your RPM plan up a notch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1 Clockify pro tip<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Track your goal progression here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/goal-tracker\">FREE goal tracker app<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rapid-planning-method-why-i-decided-to-try-rpm\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid Planning Method: Why I decided to try RPM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, if you think that the example with improving time management skills is just a random example \u2014 think again. In the past, I struggled with staying on top of my workload including poor organization, procrastinating, and worst of all, poorly managing my most valuable asset \u2014 time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I even tried incorporating some techniques that I stumbled upon on the Internet to improve my productivity, such as doing the most demanding tasks first, waking up early, and similar.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, I would end up slipping back into my old habits of poor organization and procrastinating eventually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m not saying waking up early is a bad thing \u2014 but the problem is that I had never questioned if I am really a morning person, and if such work style truly works for me.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would wake up early but end up being stressed due to working late to meet my deadlines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A little more than five months ago, I decided to shake things up. No more \u2018try the perfect time management strategy\u2019 or \u2018increase your productivity with these 5 steps\u2019 and similar. Those things would always lead to instant results, and the old habits would boomerang back eventually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I needed something deeper \u2014 something that would stick permanently and increase my self-awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that in mind, I stumbled on an appealing text about the Rapid Planning Method, and I thought to myself: <em>\u201cWhy wouldn\u2019t I use this mode of thinking to improve my time management skills?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I did. I used the above plan to achieve my goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since I\u2019ve already walked you through each step of RPM viewed through my lens \u2014 I\u2019m going to share some insights about how it affected me and the final results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rapid-planning-method-rpm-my-observations\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid Planning Method (RPM): My observations&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After some time of using the RPM methodology to achieve my desired outcome (i.e. a little more than five months), I may say that RPM opened a whole new perspective on goal-setting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to RPM, I always struggled with continuity and never really achieved long-lasting results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On that account, these are some of the most notable advantages of the Rapid Planning Method from my experience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Helps you understand what you want<\/strong> \u2014 RPM trains your brain to stay focused on the outcomes you are after. With RPM, you understand what you want and why you want it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Makes planning more manageable<\/strong> \u2014 The RPM methodology <a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/productivity\/break-project-into-tasks\/\">breaks your goals<\/a> into more manageable tasks hence making them easier to plan and prioritize.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Changes your mindset<\/strong> \u2014 As mentioned above, RPM is <em>a system of thinking<\/em>, and as such, it shifts your mindset in a way that you forget about fears and hardships and start living your full potential.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Boosts your confidence<\/strong> \u2014 This methodology offers a unique way of turning your negative beliefs about yourself into positive ones.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Documents your progress<\/strong> \u2014 To stay on track and focus on your goals, RPM makes sure you review your progress \u2014 see if what you did so far was successful or needs improvement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"rapid-planning-method-rpm-my-results-and-final-thoughts\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid Planning Method (RPM): My results and final thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I may say that no matter which technique or method you use to accomplish something in life, if you don\u2019t change your perception first \u2014 your goals and desires are doomed to failure at some point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember \u2014 positive thoughts can move mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the most valuable lesson that RPM taught me is to believe in myself and my potential.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I found extremely odd at first was building a habit of using a time tracking app to measure my time. Turning on a time tracker app each time I would start doing something was preposterous to me at that point. But, it\u2019s incredible how you get used to it so quickly, and how, as soon as you press that \u2018start\u2019 button, you just want to get to work and make every minute count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as my results are concerned, I may say that it took me a while to adjust to new changes and adhere to them religiously. Now, I don\u2019t rush blindly into trying out numerous time management techniques, I get more things done without feeling burned out, and the habit of tracking my time sticks with me even when I\u2019m doing some minor tasks around the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What keeps me going is the fact that now I never struggle to meet deadlines, my days run smoothly, I manage to do everything I plan in a day \u2014 efficiently and most importantly, stress-free.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don\u2019t want to think of myself as a laggard who can\u2019t do anything right anymore. RPM helped me create a new, exciting, and empowering identity that I\u2019m proud of. Now, I am the master of my time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, it does take time and effort to adopt this system of thinking and put it into practice, but once you do, you\u2019ll be able to get ten times the results.
