Key Points
  • In general, keep the planning and working tasks separate.
  • By planning first, it’s much easier to be productive when you go into worker mode.
  • Your task management system should collect your whens, your whats, and your ideas.
  • Make your task management system a sacred space.
  • Use due dates only when there is a consequence for not finishing something by that date.
  • Focus on only doing a few important tasks first, then move on to the rest of the tasks.
  • A morning and evening review will help you stay on top of your system.
  • Common mistakes: Putting too much into your task management system, overusing due dates, and tasks that aren’t immediately actionable.
