Chapter three. Optimizing Yourself

A POWERFUL AND EFFICIENT WORKFLOW DEPENDS on three factors: the hardware, the software, and you. In Chapter 1 I looked at optimizing the hardware, and in Chapter 2 I looked at optimizing the software (the Photoshop workspace). Now it's your turn.

Learning good habits is a great way to enhance your Photoshop productivity, because it's free, and you already have everything you needyourself. To sweeten the bargain, many of the ideas in this chapter also work across the Adobe Creative Suite and in other parts of the operating system.
