Avoid Padding To-Do Lists
- Only put tasks on your to-do list that you truly intend to do today and might not do without writing them down.
- Avoid listing routine activities that will happen anyway to keep your focus sharp.
Frog and Toad To-Do List Anecdote
- The book Frog and Toad illustrates a character who lists routine daily tasks and crosses them off as he completes them.
- This story shows humor in listing every usual activity but isn’t a productivity model.
Keep Lists Short and Focused
- Limit your daily to-do list to about five important, specific tasks, excluding routine obligations.
- This keeps your list manageable and prevents important items from being buried among daily habits.
