Working through endless task lists is one of the most depressing things to do in your daily job. For some project management jobs, their lives revolve around task management...
When I was listening to Andy Frisella's Podcast: MFCEO Project I learned about his "Power List" and it has been the most efficient way for me to prioritize my day.
Here's how it works:
- Create a list of 5 critical tasks to be completed
- These tasks include both your personal life and work life, however, you do not put anything on this list that is already part of your normal routine. Example: Do not put "workout" if you have been working out every day and it's already part of your routine.
*****THIS IS MEANT FOR THINGS YOU ARE NOT ALREADY DOING ON A DAILY BASIS*****
- Once you complete your tasks, scratch them off the list
- Once all tasks are done, put a checkmark next to the day
The idea behind this "win the day" mentality is to boost positive reinforcement and take micro bites out of your "to-do list" and increase productivity.
Here's How I use it:
- Every day I keep 1-2 of those spots on the list for my own things. Whether that has to do with Business Development activities or CEO activities, I do not let my team control all 5.
- My team is then given 3-4 spots for them to assign me "CRITICAL TASKS" that have to get completed on that day.
It works amazing.
