I've found that todo lists only work if they're put in context of larger goals and you have a system to repeatedly, frequently pop() the top of the list. It's OK (and common!) to have a todo list of 100 things, as long as you give yourself time to think about prioritization of the tasks. Someone on here recommended "Work Clean" by Charnas. It's a little fluffy at the end, but he does provides a structure with which to place and schedule tasks that I found pretty useful called Daily Meeze. It's just meta-planning (plan/schedule 30 minutes out of every day to plan/schedule). Super simple, yet effective.
- davidjnelson 8y agoThis is a useful way to handle tasks. It sounds like backlog grooming in scrum. It's nice to just write down the various ideas you get, regularly prioritize them, then grab a few of them per sprint to finish and deploy to prod at the end of that sprint.
