20 Minutes of the Day

One of the most powerful productivity strategies that I’ve come across – and one that I use on a daily basis – is to commit a little time each day to task planning. When you start your day with a clear game plan, you save yourself the hassle of having to go through everything on your to-do list (or in your mental to-do list) to decide what you should do next. This allows you to get more done while helping to ensure that important tasks don’t slip through the cracks.
