How To Get More Of What You Want Out of Life

So you want to be more successful?
To accomplish more with less effort?
Let me share with you some of the most powerful truths I know.
To be maximally effective, do these steps.
Decide what the purpose is of any action in which you engage.
Craft a clean, simple statement of the purpose.
Clearly define the product you want to accomplish.
Work out the actions you need to perform in order to obtain the product.
Identify and secure the prerequisites necessary (and only those absolutely necessary) to obtain the product.
Keeping the purpose in mind, perform the actions, as rapidly and as succinctly as you can, always looking for ways to streamline them, shedding any actions that do not specifically add to the quality, quantity or viability of the product you are producing.
Remove any barriers to increased production.
Add any organisational steps or actions that support improved quality, quantity or viability of the product you are producing.
During the time you have allocated to the task, ignore any distractions.
Do not dilute your efforts into peripheral activities but stay focused on doing that which produces the product.
If you find your motivation waning, rekindle your purpose.
Keep in mind that the more you do this, (given that you are producing a product you feel is beneficial to the recipient) the better you will feel.
