Time Management Tip - Why To Do Lists are a waste of time!
One of the most common time management tools people use is a To Do list. The first time you use a list it usually works really well. As you continue to use the To Do list something terrible happens -- it turns against you!
"The list was so long I felt overwhelmed. I was stressed just looking at it and I felt I had failed before I even started .
This is how a senior operations manager described her attempt to use a To Do list for time management. She had just given up using it when we spoke. And from her description you can understand why.
A To Do list quickly turns into something that creates stress.
Highly Effective people have moved from a To Do list to a time management system based on a weekly structure.
The BENEFIT a system with a weekly structure is that you get a realistic sense of what you can fit into your week. I call this capacity.
This week's Gift.
May you have the time of your life this week.
