Identify Your Key Constraints
Tracy applies the theory of constraints to personal work: there is usually one bottleneck that determines how fast you reach a goal. Removing it releases the whole flow.
Ask what sets the speed at which you achieve your most important goal, then ask what, in you or around it, is holding it back.
The 80/20 rule applies to constraints too: eighty percent of them are internal, within you or your organisation, not out in the world.
