1. Current habits to corrective, focused action
2. Struggle to ease: Applying the law of reverse effort
3. Ego-focus to Task-focus to double productivity
4. "I have to finish" to "I choose to start" to eliminate self-sabotage
5. "Finish an overwhelming project" to "Start for 15 minutes" to exercise effective leadership
6. Struggling with just the conscious mind to using the power and ease of the larger brain and subconscious genius
7. Reacting with stress and fear to choosing how to act in alignment with higher values, current skills and knowledge, and goals
