00:00:00,390 --> 00:00:02,770
Making your to do list work for you.

2
00:00:03,390 --> 00:00:10,650
There are more and less effective ways to use to do lists, consider these guidelines for maximizing

3
00:00:10,650 --> 00:00:14,730
their usefulness, have a single list.

4
00:00:14,850 --> 00:00:18,180
Multiple lists are redundant and confusing.

5
00:00:18,420 --> 00:00:22,080
Create a single master list and give it a place of importance.

6
00:00:22,090 --> 00:00:30,450
Special notebook, use it consistently and list is only useful if we refer to it as often as we need

7
00:00:30,450 --> 00:00:34,350
to put items in your calendar for specific times.

8
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:42,660
Don't work directly from the list where we are much more likely to do something if we devoted a space

9
00:00:42,660 --> 00:00:44,040
to it in our schedule.

10
00:00:44,530 --> 00:00:52,860
Remove items you will never get to if you are never going to do something it doesn't belong on your

11
00:00:52,860 --> 00:00:53,550
to do list.

12
00:00:53,910 --> 00:00:58,620
Save yourself the mental energy and guilt by deleting those tasks.

13
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,550
Update your list regularly.

14
00:01:02,940 --> 00:01:10,140
Rewrite your list to keep it orderly after you've crossed over and added items to it.

15
00:01:11,260 --> 00:01:16,980
Um, the, the time you take to update it will be off in greater efficiency.

16
00:01:18,570 --> 00:01:25,050
Prioritize items on the list by indicating which items are high priority.

17
00:01:25,290 --> 00:01:32,610
You can be sure to do those ones first and can relax about not getting to the lower priority items right

18
00:01:32,610 --> 00:01:32,960
away.

19
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,000
Ready to make your own To-Do list.

20
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,550
Using these principles, you can use the template in the resources section of this structure to write

21
00:01:41,550 --> 00:01:46,050
down activities you need to complete, including a very due date.

22
00:01:46,470 --> 00:01:51,800
Then give each task a priority level low, medium, high or zero to 10.

23
00:01:52,140 --> 00:01:56,070
Finally, schedule a time in your calendar to complete each activity.
