Before trying to get more of everything done, get the most important things done first. This is a simple argument that it's better to try to first achieve results through effectiveness—doing the right things, the valuable things, the important things—before trying to achieve results through efficiency—doing the same work in less time. Work on the right things first. Then become more efficient at doing those right things, and you'll have more time for either more right things or some less important things.
