You NEED to set a goal. Clear, understandable goal. Always.

Start with a line. It could be a real line on a paper or an imaginary one 

Determine where you are on this line and put a dot

Create a plan using to-do list, mind map, excel sheet or just write down all the actions you need to do to get to the point where you are fully satisfied with the results

Measure your progress every day/week/month by changing your position on the line you draw before

Add, remove, change and adjust anything you want in the process

And when you will get there, take some time to look back at what you did, how you did it and think how you can improve the whole process. Take this time to reflect, but do not overthink.

Eventually you will have the perfect system for getting everything you want in your life.
