Episode 1370: Carl Pullein explains why using due dates for all tasks in your to-do list manager can make them meaningless and create unnecessary stress. By implementing a weekly review, daily mini-review, and the 2+8 prioritization technique, you can maintain a more effective and trustworthy task management system, leading to better productivity and a greater sense of control. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.carlpullein.com/blog/why-you-should-stop-using-due-dates/21/8/2019 Quotes to ponder: "When you have a list of tasks for the day that are not due, your daily to-do list loses its power." "The weekly review is where once you have reviewed all your projects and appointments for next week you are in a much better-informed state on what you can do next week." "The 2+8 Prioritization technique restricts you to just ten tasks a day." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
