On this Seeds of Sunshine episode:

Zander Sprague's book Epic Begins with One Step Forward will reshape your thinking about success and progress. It gives you the practical steps you need to create epic results—whether you want to run a marathon, lose weight, write a book, get promoted, start a business, or achieve any other goal.
Zander believes that no matter what you're doing in life, there is a process, and if you create structure, it gets infinitely easier.
Zander's two magic words he likes to use because they will dramatically boost someone's success: NOT YET because many of our epic journeys take time.
Having studied psychology, Zander doesn't think that we encounter roadblocks, for we can make a scenic detour and embrace the fact that there's more than one way to get to a destination.
You will appreciate and apply Zander's 97/3 rule and feel empowered by it.
