    \item Concise background information on a single idea
    \begin{myBullets}
        \item More details on the proceeding statement
        \begin{myBullets}
            \item Even more details of the 2nd level statement. 
            \item Use 2nd and 3rd levels sparingly
        \end{myBullets}
    \end{myBullets}
    \item Chronological of a problem
\end{myBullets}

%~~~~~~~~~ Below is the discussion section ~~~~~~~~~~~~~%

\section*{DISCUSSION}

\begin{myBullets}
    \item Flexibile to save space and/or conform to a user's needs
    \begin{myBullets}
        \item Section can be titled ``Function" or ``Format" or ``Tips" or ``Details" or ``Discussion"
        \item If using 2nd and 3rd level, make sure there are at least two bullets
        \item Such as, this example
    \end{myBullets}
    \item This should be the ``main course" of the document!
\end{myBullets}


%~~~~~~~~~ Below is the recommendations section ~~~~~~~~~~~~~%

\section*{RECOMMENDATIONS}


\begin{myBullets}
    \item This section can be titled ``Conclusion" as it ends the document
    \item Recommendations are good for moving forward but write to the intended audience
    \item Be actionable, measurable, and attainable!
    \item Try to list OPR and OCRs per recommendation

\end{myBullets}


\end{document} %try to keep this to 1 to 2 pages anymore and it is just too much!
