Identify yourself
If you know what you want, and are comfortable with wanting it, focusing effort towards getting it will come naturally.
And don’t forget about people – you rely on them.
How you fit in with people makes all the difference in how effective you are.

Energise
Most people know that regular exercise, good eating habits, and a good night’s sleep will give you more energy. But do they put that knowledge to work?
Find out how high achievers make sure they have enough gas in the tank.
Discover your biorhythms and make them work in your favour.

Prioritise

Eliminate distractions, turning down things you don’t have time for.

Optimise
Find out where you’re wasting time. Eliminate what you can, and try to fill the remaining dead time with useful activity.
Block off time for focused effort.
Get better at doing the things you do regularly: use tools, delegate, and get more out of meetings.

Head off problems early
Build solid processes that last.
This frees you to think about the future.
Look down the road for problems that might come your way. Head them off early.

Finish things
Break your work into small chunks.
Finish what you start, and hand it off to somebody in a way that allows the other person to see its value.
In some cases it becomes clear that what you’ve started isn’t worth finishing.
In such situations, cut your losses.
