De: Paula Rizzo

Narrado por: Paula Rizzo, Joniece Abbott-Pratt

The simple to-do list can be a mighty productivity tool - after all, you’re 33 percent more likely to do something if you write it down. A list of tasks can help you approach goals in a more intentional way, set the right priorities, and hold yourself accountable. And that can help you achieve more at work and in your career.

Productivity expert Paula Rizzo shows how you can use lists to your maximum advantage. She helps you assess the work you have in front of you and identify how to best spend your time - figuring out what to work on versus what to delegate, what’s important versus what can wait. From evaluating tasks through the lens of your top priorities to embracing your own productivity rhythm and scheduling free time to recharge, her tips will empower you to accomplish more of what’s meaningful.

Key takeaways:

• The four-step formula for creating a list-making system that will work for your life
• What a “distraction placeholder” is and how to use it
• How to find your personal productivity style and use it to schedule your days more effectively
• Why an accountability buddy can be the secret to getting things done
• How to stay productive when working in a group
• What a “to become” list is and how it helps you envision your dream life
