How to Build Anything Extremely Quickly

Outline speedrunning involves creating a detailed outline of a project, breaking it down into smaller tasks recursively, completing them quickly without perfecting, and then refining the project once it's done. This method, compared to the traditional 'loading-bar' style, can significantly speed up tasks like writing and programming by increasing momentum and reducing stress. The key is to not perfect any part of the project until it is fully completed.
