Quick Summary
Before building a productivity system, decide what you want to build or achieve.

Ask yourself simple questions
Ask yourself:
- What do I want to achieve in the next few months?
- What problem do I want to solve?
- What opportunity do I want to explore?

Focus can evolve
Your focus does not need to stay the same forever.
Once a goal is achieved, you can define a new focus.
