The proverbial list of tasks requiring attention. Depending on your approach, this may feel endless on any given day. Some are important, others are urgent, and many are trivial. Yet, all require completion.

Have you defined whose list you are attending to? Is it yours or that of others, and whose priority is it?. For example, if you start your day with emails and texts, you will inevitably be addressing someone else’s to-do’s first.  Is that what we want to or should be doing? 

If you use a to-do system, let it highlight your priorities and not those of others. After all, they will likely not be taking responsibility for what you don’t get done.
