Making To-Do Lists Before Falling Asleep
I read that it is a good practice to make a to-do list for the next day before you go to sleep. After I took some time to think about the current projects on my plate, I made a list of all the items I wanted to accomplish today. I even put time frames and specific quantitative measures for each item.
So far. So good.
I have met every one of my deadlines so far today. I have a pretty tight deadline for finishing the entire look and feel of one of our new website projects by 3:00pm EST, so I better get to it.
I think I first heard of this practice either in Brian Tracey’s Eat That Frog or in The Art of Getting Things Done. Either way, you should check out both of these books. They can greatly increase your productivity at the workplace and at home.
