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.
