I forget where I heard this routine (Lifestyle Business Podcast maybe?), but I've found it very helpful. It goes something like this: -Write to-do items on a post-it note -Scratch them off as you accomplish them -When the majority of the post-it is scratched, start a new note, beginning with the few items that did not get finished from the last post-it -Evaluate the items that you didn't accomplish from the last post-it. How many times have you copied them from one post-it to another? If more than twice, it is either not important or you are seriously procrastinating. Do it, outsource it or just delete it and move on.
