314: Focus Friday - Closing The Loops

Most of us have specific tasks we continually avoid for weeks, months or even years. These open loops can range from simple (can be completed within a minute or two) to complex (more time consuming). What do these tasks all have in common? They take up mental bandwidth and deplete your energy. We share specific examples of open loops and a system to close the loops in your life. In this episode, we discuss: Closing the loops in your life How to complete tasks To-do lists vs. closing the loops Examples of tasks Start by taking an inventory Work together and delegate Organize one master list Create a method to track Weekly to-do lists Celebrate small wins!
