There are several ways to develop this sense of urgency in order to have high achievement standards.

The Basics

Perhaps the first and most basic requirement on the journey to achieve success effectively and quickly would be to developing a habit to think and plan in depth.

Taking the time to exercise this practice regularly would eventually allow the individual to launch into it habitually. Once this is established the individual would then be able to make assessments and provide or design solutions at a faster speed and also at a more accurate one.

Then developing the skill to stay consistent would be the next step. Having the general tasks outlined, it would then be prudent to ensure these are carried out in a prompt and flowing manner. This habit would then enable the individual to focus and produce high quality performance and productivity.

Being more in tune with what is being done and the various workings within the task outlines, the natural instincts of being more alert and aware would also be developed over time.

These instincts will help the individual avoid any possible follies along the way. At the first sign of potential problems the appropriate solutions can be developed based on the ideas and insights gained from other past experiences.

The sense of urgency can and usually does produce these kinds of positive reactions and over time and experience it can be fine tuned to be more effective in producing the desired results. This comes from the inner drive to complete something quickly and successfully.
