Moving from a vicious to a virtuous cycle

You know how to explore the available features. Here is a recap of how to improve your efficiency using our simple but powerful method.

Vicious cycle:

  • We use Office every day to do various activities.
  • We have limited time, and we want to use that time to grow in our career and business.
  • Each activity we perform using Office is inefficient, which means we are wasting time.
  • Because we are wasting time repeatedly, we have less time available.
  • This means there is no time to learn the right way or more efficient method.
  • Because we are not learning we are not efficient.
  • This is the vicious cycle.

Virtuous cycle:

  • You find an efficient way to do something.
  • That saves you some time.
  • You invest some of that time into finding a more efficient method.
  • That saves you even more time.
  • This is a virtuous cycle.

And that is exactly what we will do in this book. Just keep an open mind, follow the book, and you will see the results for yourself.

Stop Ignoring and Start Exploring

Ignoring leads to ignorance. Exploration leads to excellence.

Before we proceed, let me address the most common questions I receive. You need not read it in detail. Just browse through the topics. Check the details only if they are relevant to you.
