Action points

  • Try never to do the same job in the same way twice. Always be looking for ways to find short cuts or delegate tasks.
  • Don’t worry about not being ‘busy enough’. If you give yourself freedom, you’ll be able to concentrate on the really important things.
  • Subscribe to the Ferris Bueller theory of life: ‘Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.’
