The Most Productive Thing

How do you weed through
the weighty to-do list
to actually do?

Don The Idea Guy
asks himself this question
“Are you doing the most productive
thing possible right now?”

This allows us to first ask
what is truly important
and then to move that task
to the top of the list.

The least productive things?
Either delegate
or drop from the list entirely.

Email Management

Mary Sullivan at Way To Grow relays that
“Peter Turla of the National Management Institute
estimates that 65 percent of the participants
in his time management seminars
compulsively check their e-mail.”

Email can be a time sucker.
As I’m currently
in my summer writing routine,
I keep my emails and phone calls
and blogging surfing
on a tight schedule.

I do first.
Report on it second.
