In this episode, Paul explains how positive environmental programming leads to goal achievement Show Notes: “Success does not have to be as has hard as we make it.” Positive environmental programming (PEP) is proactively controlling your environment to achieve your goals successfully.  As Mary Poppins said, “Well begun is half done.” Conduct a barrier analysis and identify what is getting in the way of achieving the goal. Then you focus on removing the barrier. Don’t make success any harder than it has to be.  Reducing friction is another way to proactively set yourself up for success. “Don’t set your alarm and place it on your nightstand, place it on your dresser.” Keep it out of arm’s reach. Positively stage your environment. Surround yourself with positive messages.
