Define and Do to Achieve

Implementing an effective system requires clarity on two essential aspects: defining what 'done' looks like and determining what 'doing' entails. A key approach is to consistently ask, 'What's the next action to move this forward?' By focusing on actionable steps and a clear end state, individuals can significantly enhance their progress toward goals and successfully complete projects. It is important to recognize that the cognitive effort involved in such clarity—thinking and deciding—demands energy, which is often underestimated.
