Question

Do you ever make a "to do" list, but not get it all done?

Answer 1

All the time

Answer 2

everyday!!!

Answer 3

Yes, all the time, but....

It is the second step which is most important.  You need to put the order of importance down.  And that never means the easiest, but the project that will give you the greatest benefit. For example:  your boss wants you to finish a project in four hours and you would love to chat with a friend who left a message.  

The second is easy, the first should be on the top of the list.

You can use the same list, updated. day after day, but when you find that some items just stay on the bottom, not because they are hard but because they really do not matter, eliminate them.

Answer 4

I always make a list of things to do and then cross them off as the jobs are done, but before I finish the original list I always find more things to add!

Cant remember ever crossing the whole lot off, but it helps me to remember things i have to sort out!
