How to use it

Goals, problems, diagnosis, design, doing, then round again. Know what you want; find the problems in the way and don't tolerate them; diagnose the root cause, not the symptom; design the fix; then push yourself to do it. Most people are good at one or two steps: get help for the ones you're not.
