How to make lists and antislides
How do the lists organize us?
Let's list the advantages of compiling lists:
- It's a great way to manage your life.
- It's easy to break complex cases into small ones.
- You can see the big picture by moving away from the details.
- It becomes easier to determine priorities.
- You can track progress.
- Preservation of mental energy.
- You will cease to forget, and also learn to manage your time.
- Lists, especially visualized (with photographs, pictures, pictograms) - an indispensable element of the personal organization system. But, of course, there are many pitfalls to be avoided when working with them. Let's consider them:
Do not waste time planning and regularly updating lists
Plan your time for planning, however strange it may sound. Remember that this process will save a huge amount of time.
Litter your list
Too many items exert additional pressure, especially because of the paradox of choice (we refuse to decide if there are too many options). The more items on the list, the more likely that you will make a minimum. Choose three main tasks and start your day with them.
Starting the day with simple tasks
The popular rule "Eat a frog for breakfast" is very relevant to the compilation of lists. It is only necessary to start things from the Internet and TV, as the desire to engage in something complicated completely disappears.
Do not see the whole picture
Remember that you are not just doing things, but realizing their importance and value for their lives in the long run. Yes, sometimes you have to do what is needed right now, but if there is a possibility and time, do something that will benefit globally. Constantly ask yourself the question: "Will it help me in the future?".
Engage in micromanagement
Micromanagement in self-development is a situation in which you paint each step in the smallest detail. Leave yourself room for maneuver, unless you work at a nuclear power plant.
How to compile BucketList
This is a list of cases, actions, adventures and events in which you need to participate in your life. Do not immediately rush into the battle and write the first thing that comes to mind. Each item must meet your values and interests. To drink coffee with a croissant in a cafe with a view of the Eiffel Tower - it sounds nice, but is not it too primitive? Maybe it really just "sounds", and is not?
You should see the world as a platform with unlimited possibilities for growth, enjoyment and creation, especially with positive energy and in cooperation with other people.
