MY SYSTEMS
WHAT THEY ARE AND WHAT TO REDESIGN/IMPROVE


IN PROCESS!     (Relevant piece:  Work The System, Work The Plan! And Your Life Will Work, Guaranteed!  And Improving My Systems - About The New Effort And The Whys Of It, about Keith's efforts in applying this.)

Obviously in design phase, so pick off the useful items and explore them for yourself until I can add the explanations and missing pieces. (I put this up now so I can find it when I need it, via the search engine, to work on it.)

This is what I have devised so far, with the help of others' inputs and with my own final design and decisions.  Suggestions for improvement are very welcome, thanks.  Contact.

Yes, this seems like alot of work, but it will, in a relatively short time end up saving you time (net, after subtracting the time you spent on devising these.
