Do you find that your "to do" list just keeps getting longer instead of shorter? Do you even start adding things that belong to someone else just so they can get written down somewhere? Below are a few organizational tips on how to cross off more of your items.
- Always keep your "to do" list handy, so you can tackle a project if you find you have time to kill. For example, make a return phone call while waiting in the carpool line or clean out your purse while in your doctor's waiting room.
- Create "to do" lists that are easy to manage. There is now a FABULOUS site Gubb that is FREE and will let you create, store, manage and even share your multiple lists. They have lists for errands, books, groceries, etc. You can even text message lists to a cell phone, (yours or another). Hey what a GREAT excuse to delegate (oh honey...).
- Write your "to do's" in your datebook as if they were appointments. This will then force you to truly estimate how long a project will take you, so you will be less like to procrastinate and put it off!
