  • It's important to understand why they are your goals.
  • It's important to determine which goals are more important than others (goals priority).
  • It's important to know which goals are dependent on other goals (goals decomposition and dependency).
  • To reach a goal, you must first acquire the tools (knowledge, resources) to get to your objective.
  • It's important to know when to drop/abandon goals.

  • Sources of inefficiency

    • Trying to do the same time repeatedly while not having enough experience to do it.
  • Always try to figure out the most optimal path toward a goal

    • Observe others successful at achieving the goal you want to achieve.
    • Determine the differences between your state and theirs (what they know, what resources are available to them, etc.).
  • How to determine when it is not possible to reach a goal at a given moment in time?
    • Not enough time available
    • Too costly
    • Dependencies not resolved/ready
