1. Ducks don’t need to be in rows. Stop wasting time trying to get everything ready before you take action. Jump in, get started and start driving results.
   
2. Perfection is impossible. Stop striving for perfection. Start striving for excellence and see how you can improve later.
3. Are you busy being busy? Start taking stock of what’s keeping you busy. If it’s not adding value, stop what you’re doing.
