PRODUCTIVITY OVERALL
Productivity comes from a number of factors we will work with, but it must first start in
formulating, in written form, specific goals and specific actions. Without that, no one can
be powerfully effective in life. (See SiteMap III materials.) Your productivity will be
dramatically increased through following the practices and perspectives in the Life
Management section.
Read in this order:
THE 80/20 PRINCIPLE - One of the most valuable principles of all time. Use it to
manage your life and your life will be several 100%'s better!
through these steps to be productive, which means actually produce results. Those
who don't do not succeed. ("The Secret" doesn't work without these pieces being
included!!!)
The Power Of Concentrated Focus - A booster rocket for forward progress.
Payoffs, Diminishing And Increasing Returns, When To Quit - A vital principle to be
aware of. The productive person also knows when to stop putting time into
something - and to go to what is more productive.

properly from this vital principle.
And a little secret weapon: Theme Days - Rejuvenating, fulfilling, results producing,
seems to expand time and make life easier.
