1. Define and clarify the issue – does it warrant action? If so, now? Is the matter urgent, important or both.
2. Gather all the facts and understand their causes.
3. Think about or brainstorm possible options and solutions.
4. Consider and compare the pros and cons of each option – consult if necessary – it probably will be.
5. Select the best option – avoid vagueness or ‘foot in both camps’ compromise.
6. Explain your decision to those involved and affected, and follow up to ensure proper and effective implementation.

One point really caught my attention: Take 10 minutes a day to review your goals. As somebody who struggles keeping focused, I really liked that suggestion as it will keep me on track. So far I have not been very good keeping up with it, but I sure think it is a great suggestion and I will continue to remind myself to review my goals on a daily basis.
