Do you go through multiple note pads weekly and have found that sticky notes have become a part of your wallpaper and house décor? Maybe even covering up pictures on your refrigerator? If so, let us offer a bit of organizational tips that just may slim down that to-do list. Becoming a master at making a to-do list can help you save time, be more productive, and also become better organized.
Keep it simple- Keep your list to the point and simple. Creating an overly detailed to-do list can lead to even more things to do that aren’t necessarily as important and also can be slightly overwhelming. It can be a hectic vicious cycle!
Plan ahead- Map out your day in your head the night before or the morning of making your to-do list. Try and schedule things or tasks near each other at the same time to avoid wasting time running all over the place.
Create time- Need to get something tedious off your list but can’t find time? Wake up 20 minutes earlier than usual to get that task done. Mornings can be a great time to accomplish detailed tasks because the craziness of the day hasn’t started yet and it is easier to remain focused.
Keep it uniform- Try and keep your to-do list on a certain type of paper or stationary in the same location each day. This will avoid all those sticky notes piling up and will also help you stay organized.
Keep priorities, priorities- If you have something you need to do, avoid putting it off until tomorrow and get it off of your list today. As Nike would say,” Just do it!” Putting tasks off will only result in a longer to-do list in the future, and get you behind.
