Does your to-do list just keep growing and growing?
Do you even have a to-do list?
I look at my desktop and I see things that have been building up over the past week: business cards, reference books, fax receipts, a network drawing, 743 legal pads and notebooks, and several proposals varying in thickness. It’s a microcosm of my job duties.
Emerging from the organized mess are two glorious sheets of paper that I would be lost without: my to-do lists.
Multi tasking is a necessity for most people, and tracking those tasks is even more of a necessity (if such a thing is possible).
I use two to-do lists. One tells me what absolutely has to get done today, and the other is for the week. My long term projects I keep on a very handy whiteboard.
While the Internet can often be a time waster, there are a number of sites with extremely helpful productivity hints. They feature productivity suggestions for your life and for your computer. I’ve listed some of my favorites below:
http://www.lifehacker.com – “Tips and downloads for getting things done”
http://www.43folders.com - “Productivity and time management tips”
http://www.zenhabits.net - “Simple productivity”
They feature useful and fun articles such as “How to Be Your Own Executive Assistant in 3 Easy Steps” and “Fight Morning Grogginess”
Enjoy!
