Quick takeaways

  • Approach your task manager without expectations after a few weeks and focus on what needs to be done today, recognizing that cleaning it up won't take as long as the initial setup
  • If it's been months or even a year since you last visited your task manager, assess if you want to keep the system, clean it up intentionally, and make changes to prevent future lapses
