  1. I want to code more because: short-term goal: to improve my coding consistency in order to better my skillset and get a well-paying job. Long-term goal: building profitable web applications and start-ups.

  2. I know I’ll have reached my β€œcode more” goal when: I’m able to consistently code for at least 4 hours everyday.

  3. My top three assumptions for reaching my goal are:
    β—‹ I’ll always have 4 hours to dedicate to coding daily.
    β—‹ I’ll always have self-discipline to stick to my daily coding goals.
    β—‹ I’ll always have the motivation to keep learning.

  4. Of these assumptions, my riskiest is self-discipline to stick to my daily coding goals.

  5. When I think about my riskiest assumption, three possible root causes are:
    β—‹ Waking up late in the morning.
    β—‹ Procrastination.
    β—‹ Lack of daily consistency.

  6. 3 ways I might address these root causes are:
    β—‹ Ensuring that I wake up at the same time every morning (to improve consistency).
    β—‹ Dedicating the first 4 hours of every morning to coding.
    β—‹ Getting an accountability partner to ensure I stick to my daily goals.

  7. Of these, the biggest cause that’s worth tackling first is getting an accountability partner.
