Getting Things Done

Blogging comes with a never-ending to-do list. Reach out to that sponsor! Send so-and-so an invoice! Look into why my site is slow! Come up with an editorial calendar for next month!

How do you ensure that you stay productive and on top of all of your to-dos? You have a set system of principles to keep you organized and motivated.
