“To Do” List Characteristics

To do lists are essential for personal productivity. They provide a place to write down tasks that need completing, but it is important not to overwhelm oneself with too many things on the list at once or one will never get them completed. It is also good practice not to spend every waking moment updating the list because this can cause anxiety and stress rather than relief when checking off items from your “to-do” list. Make sure you prioritize what needs done first so that more time can be spent getting the most significant tasks complete instead of wasting energy trying everything all at once.
