What should you do in the daily To do list？

Daily planning has become one of the daily tasks of many people. Looking at the long list of notepads, one by one was checked, and there was a sense of satisfaction and security beyond words. After reading so many time management books and listening to so many experience of time management experts, is your to do list still a long list?

I divide my daily to do list into two categories, one is frog list and the other is random list. There are no more than 5 things that must be done every day, that is, the most difficult frog events to gnaw, and usually 3 events. Starting in the morning, focus on the 3-5 hardest things first when you are most efficient. When this most important thing is done in one day, you will feel a sense of relief. For some people, as long as the list of frogs is completed, it is acceptable to me if the other lists are not completed. Even if it is not completed, I can still guarantee my sense of accomplishment.

What is going to be the frog event of the day is a very important question. According to the well-known four-quadrant method, it is generally important and urgent matters and important non-urgent matters. First of all, these kinds of things are divided in nature, mainly work matters and matters related to the improvement of core skills. Every day, ensure that the most important tasks of the day are completed first, and at least one thing that improves core skills is completed. For example, some people’s goal for one year is to improve their spoken English and writing, so in terms of improving their core skills, the priority is to ensure that they complete the one-hour free talk course and summary every day, and guarantee 1000 words of writing output every day.

As far as casual events are concerned, this category will also be something I want to do, or a very important thing, such as fitness, reading non-professional books or practicing calligraphy. But these things may not be done every day. Try to make sure that you do fitness and calligraphy 2-3 times a week. Non-professional books will be read for a while before going to bed, even if one page is good.

It is very convenient to have a to do list notebook. You can plan your time according to the contents of the notebook, such as making good use of fragmented time.The fragment time is mainly the time on the subway.I will try my best to take the subway. The subway is a good time to read and type. If I choose to drive, I will choose audio, such as international radio stations, which are both fun and listening. Reading a book is also my choice when I don't want to do anything on the road or at home. It is easy to finish listening to a book.

After all, what is the goal of our plan, intuition will determine how we make a daily list. There is no need to ask us to be a dense list every day, nor to ask us to be all-rounders, want to do everything every day, but in the end we can't do anything.

Set your goals to be simple and make your life easier. The plan is to enjoy life better and have a better rest.
