Workflows take thinking
• What work is repetitive?
• What data can you standardize across projects?
• How should you name things?
• How should you structure projects?
• What steps in a project slow you down?

Start at your level, and improve
• Start simple
• Re-usable code snippets
• Keep them together
• Build a file of commonly used functions (99_functions.R)
• Build a package
• When you can make the time, or skills are ready

Getting data out of R*
• Copying and pasting from the console is painful (or impossible)
• Writing to CSV and opening to copy/paste from is too many steps
• copy_clip()

Build solutions to common problems
• Limit manual intervention
• Make objects (data, functions, etc) accessible
• Reduce repetition
• Simplify integration with other tools/software
