This note is quoted from " Eat that Frog!" by Brian Tracy.
Step No. one: Decide exactly what you want.
Rule: "One of the very worst uses of time is to do something very well that need not be done at all."
Step No. two: Write it down.
Rule: "Think on paper"
Step No. three: Set a deadline on your goal.
" A goal or decision without a deadline has no urgency. It has no real beginning or end. Without a definite deadline accompanied by the assignment or acceptance of specific responsibilities for completion, you will naturally procrastinate and get very little done."
Step No. four: Make a list of everything that you can think of that you are going to have to do to achieve your goal.
"As you think of new activities, add them to your list. Keep building your list until it is complete"
Step No. five: Organize the list into a plan.
"Organize your list by priority and sequence."
Step No. six: Take action on your plan immediately.
" Do something. Do anything. For you to achieve any kind of success, execution is everything."
Step No. seven: Resolve to do something every single day that moves you toward your major goal.
"Build this activity into your daily schedule. Never miss a day."
"Keep pushing forward. Once your start moving, keep moving. Don't stop. This decision, this discipline alone, can make you one of the most productive and successful people of your generation."
