"What Would _____ Do?"

Most people get stuck because they skip one thing: honesty. This image lays out a perfect mini-framework to break through mental blocks and actually make progress.

The 3-Step Breakdown

1. Ask: What have I done to accomplish my goal?
2. Ask: What would a successful person do?
3. Then… Google it.

Why It Works

• Forces accountability (you see what you’ve actually done).
• Models success using real-world examples.
• Uses quick research to remove excuses.
• Makes an emotional problem logical and actionable.

Real-World Examples

• Tim Ferriss studies top performers, then copies their systems.
• Warren Buffett reads 500 pages a day to find business patterns.
• Mark Manson built his writing brand by asking, “What would my favorite authors do?” and iterating.
