How to Ruthlessly Prioritize Tasks to Get More Done
Ruthless prioritization
It means deciding not to do things you'd really like to do. It also means deciding what's the most important task even when everything on your list feels crucial.
But if you can prioritize...
Consolidate All of Your Tasks Into a Single Source
To-dos arrive from a variety of sources. Your boss sends you an email, you get a Slack message from IT, a bill arrives in the mail, or a coworker asks for a favor in the hallway.
In order to prioritize your task list efficiently, you need a master to-do list that contains all of the tasks you need to prioritize and complete from all of those sources.
Analyze Your Task List
Go through your list, review each task, and decide what you want to do with it. You have 4 options:
- Do: complete the task now
- Defer: complete it later
- Delegate: assign it to someone else
- Delete: remove it from your list

6 Truths About Exercise That Nobody Wants to Believe
The basics to succeed in the gym:
- Commit to the long-term process.
- Don't treat exercise as something to do when it's convenient.
- Great results come from great focus, not a great variety.
Don't focus on the short-term results
- The goal is not to lose 40 pounds in the next 12 weeks, but to regain your health for the rest of your life.
- The goal is not to bench press 300 pounds, but to be the guy who never misses a workout.
- The goal is not to sacrifice everything to get your fastest time in next month's race, but to be faster next year than you are today.
Focus on the best exercises
People often waste time in the gym bouncing around without any real goal, doing a little bit of this machine and a little bit of that machine.
The simple rule that will always guide you toward the best exercises: the more an exercise makes you move, the bigger the benefits it will deliver.
