Do you wonder some days how you’re going to get it all done? Lists can be a helpful way to organize and prioritize how you structure your plans for days, weeks and in some cases, recurring events or an upcoming event in the year!
How can you make the most out of your lists?
-Be specific with the priorities. It sounds simple enough, but oftentimes things we think we’ll remember, get pushed off to the side because we forget about them
-Plan your days/weeks in advance. I recommend this with exercise, meals and overall it makes life easier when you write down priorities that have to be accomplished on/by a specific day.
-Consider the consequences. Often times, we push off what we can until the last minute. I think that’s human nature, however if you plan in advance, you’ll have more than enough time. Should something come up and cause a delay, it will not affect your plans.
-Write down priorities for the day: Put them in specific blocks of time, or number them by importance. This will help you to work your way through your list.
-Know your limits: Set realistic goals for each day.
-Know yourself well enough to determine which tasks should be handled at a specific time. Essentially if you’re a morning person, it’s best to plan events that require your mental power and physical energy in the morning hours.
-Maximize your time: Look at your list and determine if you can “chunk” certain tasks together to be more efficient with your time.
There are only so many hours in the day, but if we make the most of our time, we can accomplish anything we set out to do!
