How to Apply This
-
Turn a piece of paper horizontally.
-
On the left side, write down a task you are forced to perform at work.
-
Ask yourself these two questions:
- What is the purpose of this task?
- What will this task accomplish? -
Draw an arrow to the right and write down your answers.
-
If what you wrote still seems unimportant, ask yourself again: what does this result lead to?
-
Draw another arrow and write this down. Keep going until you get the result that motivates you.
