“Do you look the part you were born to play?” #writing #life
Success isn’t measured by a goal, wish, or journey. It is measured now by how much you have improved. #life #success

Reminder list/app has next tasks that MUST be done Backlock list/app has all the other to-dos Calendars are to remind you of appointments in the future. These should automatically convert to a reminder when due. #life #productivity #project #planning #gtd

Yes, it’s valuable to list all the things you need to do. But the only one that matters is the next step. Keep your next step list in a separate app. Don’t keep it in the same app. Don’t confuse the issue with distractions. #life #productivity #project #planning #gtd
The only task that matters is the 1st/next one. The other ones are bound to change or be re-prioritized, either explicitly or because something new shows up. Focus on the next step. Everything else, is just mind-baggage, whether mental or on a list. #life #productivity #project #planning #gtd
