Permanence
Become the Person You Want to Be—and Stay That Way
Answer six questions for two minutes per day and you can change almost anything.
If you’ve ever met a goal and thought, Now what?—you’re not alone. Permanence is your tool for lasting success—not the kind that’s here one day and gone the next, but the kind that sticks with you. Small, consistent steps—six questions daily—will keep you focused, on track, and synced with what you care about most.
The real challenge isn’t just getting there. It’s staying there. In this book, you’ll learn the Daily Question Process, how to use feedforward instead of feedback, and how to build systems of accountability that yield results. You’ll stop thinking about quick wins and start improving in a sustained way—driven by who you want to be, not what others are doing.
Whether you’re leading a team or leading yourself, Permanence helps you track what matters, eliminate distractions, and create permanent habits that get you where you want to be—not just once, but for the long haul.
Success isn’t a one-time achievement. It’s about showing up for yourself, every day. This book gets you there, and keeps you there.
