Beating Procrastination

Make a To-Do List

This might seem like a very obvious time management trick. Maybe you already successfully make to-do lists all the time. But, many people do not. If they do, then they often do so inefficiently.

If you don’t tend to make a to-do list every day, think about your reason why. How do you know what you should do each day? Maybe you just have all your tasks swirling around in your head. If that’s the case, then you’re setting yourself up for failure right off the bat.

You need to get your to-do list action items out of your head and down on paper. If you have too much swirling around in your head, then you won’t know what to do first, and you’ll constantly be worrying that you’ve forgotten something (and maybe you will have).

Consider whether these statements are true for you:

Do you put projects off, even though you know you should be working on them right away?

Do you find that you get nervous about starting a project because it seems way too difficult to finish?
