“Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy.” – Leo F. Buscaglia. I used to worry about productivity and time management until I realized it was holding me back, instead I started making sure everything I do is strategic and impactful to maximize my time and enjoy the process. So I created a new approach I call "Marie Kondo" your to do list. In a nutshell, it's about making a strategic plan that will require 20% of your time but will bring you 80% of your biggest results.  1) Make an exhaustive list of all of your activities  2) Categorize them into daily, weekly, monthly 3) Find that are strategic, schedule focused 2 hour blocks everyday during your most productive hours to complete these tasks 4) Find tasks that can be delegated: - If someone can do a better job than you - If paying someone is cheaper than your own hourly rate - If the task is not important and someone can take over this task - Share household chords with your family members 5) Find time wasters and toss them out 6) Once you delete real time wasters, you can FOCUS your time on the most strategic items.  Important: activities that bring you joy and let you gain more energy ARE also strategic, mine include weekly active quality time, movie nights with family, monthly outings with friends, working out twice per week.
