Request for disproof: Any successful people here make to-do lists?
- acjohnson55 10y agoMy wife is ultra-productive and is a todo-list person. She does have a tendency to overcommit, which scheduling would help with. But that hasn't stopped her from being quite successful, and she works at a PR firm, which is a job has all sorts of tasks that continually emerge and require prioritization. I'm less so a todo-list person, but I do use them help to clear my headspace, more so than to run my day. I plan to experiment with more scheduling to enhance my productivity. I don't think I'm the sort that wants to go to the extreme with it, but I think I may find it helpful.
- codeonfire 10y agoMy method is this: - make a todo list - give each item a cost to get it done or level of effort 0.5 - 4 hours - find out how much actual time I have - budget out that time to each item in 0.5 hour increments - optionally make a schedule Got me through college x 3.
