Book Abstract

MAIN IDEA

How do you make achievement a habit in your personal and professional life?

You do this by applying the design thinking methodology to your life and career. Specifically, there are five things you should do:

Get into the habit of approaching everything using design thinking

Favor action over thinking – make a 100-percent effort to do things

Don't be intimidated if the odds are against you – they always will be

Do what you can now – we all face a final countdown so don't delay

Be the cause of good things – not the victim of circumstances
