Stop Making To-Do Lists Do This Instead
Problem
- To-do lists should be called painful wish lists. A series of tasks you hope to accomplish, without a specific plan.
Solutions
- Schedule a chunk of time for everything that is important to you; this is called “time blocking” or “time boxing.”
- Important items should be scheduled as early in the day as possible
- Third, don’t cancel goals; reschedule them if necessary.
- Treat your time-blocked calendar entries as if they were appointments with your doctor; they are that important.

Every Yes Is a No to Something Else
- Every Yes is a No to something else. It's not that you should say no to everything; it's that you should think it through.
- uncontrolled, saying yes to requests for time will quickly block out all the other things we value—including the very things that made us successful in the first place.
- Give yourself permission to say no without guilt. You should not care about what others think of you for declining their requests!
- Say no to everything that does not support your immediate goals

The E-3C System
E-(Energy)=You can’t make more time, but you can increase your productivity, by getting enough sleep, eating healthy, and doing meditation
C-(CAPTURE)=You must “capture” everything and anything into a notebook instead of trying to keep things in your head.
C-(CALENDAR)-What is implied with this step is don’t use a to-do list! If you want “to do” something, immediately schedule it on your calendar.
C-(Concentrate)- Don’t multitask, concentrate on one task at a time.
