Hi,

The keys to efficiency (in order of importance)~

* Being sane (in other words, not addicted to drugs [or sex, or TV], not fighting personal demons, not fighting depression)

* Working toward the optimum goal

* Expertise, so you can do the job without studying first

* A flow chart, made in advance (thanks to Michael Ross for getting me interested in flow charts)

That's pretty much it (am I a genius or what).

Hope this helps and just my two cents.

Best,

-Boyd
