Plan, organize, direct, and control - the four basic pillars of management. Both art and science.
Next comes staff motivation and training, followed by personal time-management and self-management skills.
Master all that, and you'll be on your way.
And while on that journey, keep in mind the 80/20 rule - that 20% of the work (the first and final 10%) takes 80% of the effort. So start and end a project, task or assignment with conviction - and the desired outcomes will surely result.
