  • Frame of Reference Filter You must develop a good internal frame of reference so that you can judge yourself effectively and rapidly. This will get rid of a lot of self doubt and build confidence. This is best done by reviewing tasks you have already completed to see where you were slow in making a decision. You need to clearly identify those areas where your skills are good so that you do not waste time deliberating. Areas where you are more uncertain will need training. You should always include some learning or training in your daily schedule.
  • Chunk Size Filter If your tendency is to concentrate on details then this is what interests you most which means you may neglect and you may need to develop more motivation into looking at the overall picture and higher level planning. Conversely if your outlook is too 'global' you may need to expend more effort on the details.
