One of the cornerstones of productivity is creating effective to-do lists.
We all begin projects with a lot of energy, but as interruptions and distractions pile up, you can quickly lose focus.
It's easy to write a list. The hard part is to write one that helps you complete the important things.
The solution is to use multiple lists that each focus on a different aspect of your life.
And that's the core concept of my latest Kindle book:
To-Do List Makeover: A Simple Guide to Getting the Important Things Done

George.
One of the things I am a VERY firm believer in is getting the difficult and/or creative tasks done as early as possible. Most people are at their best not long after waking up and this is an important time to get big/important/creative tasks done. Plus doing the hard stuff first makes the rest of the day seem easy.
So the answer is certainly a “yes”
After that however, I don’t think the order of your tasks matter on a daily basis – as long as you also spenmd time working on something, “long term”
Hello, I hope you are fine.
I’ve been reading this book ( To do list Makeover) and I have some questions. To what email address should I write you?
Thank you in advance, Cinthya
Hi S.J.,
I just read your book and am looking forward to giving your system a try. I have a question, though – you say to put your project tasks in the project lists, but what about the single tasks that aren’t a part of a project? For example, let’s say that I have a 30 minute task called “Submit expense report for NY Trip”. It’s just a single action that requires a 30 minute block of time. Where should I list it so it’s not forgotten? Should there be a projects list called “single actions”?
Thanks,
//Ken
Ken,
Personally I would put it on the same list, even though it is a quick task. The small task is the project. It can just be done quickly.
But this is one of those personal issues. I would recommend doing what makes sense for you personally, a good argument can be made for both having a separate single task lists and project lists. Why not try both and see which one works for you and your personal style.
