The 10-Minute Weekly Habit That Unlocks Exponential Growth

Today, I want to share a framework that has transformed my leadership journey and become the secret weapon for hundreds of leaders I've coached. It takes just 10 minutes a week, but its impact can be exponential.

It's known as the 3Ps, and it’s refreshingly simple yet powerful:
Plans 📋, Progress 📈, Problems 🎯.

Each week, you reflect on these three questions:
1️⃣ What are your plans for the week?
2️⃣ What progress did you make?
3️⃣ What problems or opportunities arose?

Here's where it gets interesting. When you look at how these three elements intersect, you unlock powerful insights:

Where Plans meet Progress: You're ACHIEVING
Where Progress meets Problems: You're SOLVING
When Problems shape Plans: You're ADAPTING and EVOLVING

But the real magic happens at the center, where all three elements overlap. This is where exponential GROWTH occurs – where learning becomes systematic and innovation becomes natural.

Making It Work:

• Block out 10 minutes every week – same time, same place

• Look for the intersections between your Plans, Progress, and Problems

• Document your insights

• Plan your adaptations

Think of it like compound interest for your leadership development. Each weekly session builds upon the last. Small observations become patterns. Patterns become strategies. Strategies become breakthroughs.

The Real-World Impact:

• Clearer decision-making

• More strategic problem-solving

• Accelerated learning cycles

• Sustainable growth patterns

This framework isn't about doing extraordinary things. It's about doing ordinary things with extraordinary consistency. The most powerful outcome? It transforms your relationship with problems. Instead of seeing them as obstacles, you recognize them as signposts pointing toward your next breakthrough.

So here's my challenge to you: Take 10 minutes this week. Look at your current situation through the 3Ps lens. What challenges have you been avoiding that, with the right mindset, could become your greatest breakthrough?

Here's to your exponential growth,
Jeff
