I am currently writing a list of my daily, weekly, and monthly things I need to do. Once those lists feel complete, I intend to look it over and filter it by these three criteria.
Can I eliminate it? If there is anything on the lists that I don't need to be doing at all, I should scrub it from my schedule. Maybe I feel the need to do something. Or maybe it has been a habit for a long time. I may need to let it go and strike it from my list.
Can I delegate it? If there are things on my lists that others could do better, I need to hand those tasks over to them. It maybe that I need to pay someone to do those things. I need to be willing to give up that money in order to free up my time to do more important things.
Can I quicken it? When my list of to-do's has been shortened and cleaned I then need to examine those things that remain and see if I can speed up any of them. Maybe there are steps that could be eliminated. Maybe I could make a concentrated effort to get a number of them completed in a short period of time.
My hope is that I can make my essential list my highest, most needful, most impactful items to accomplish. I also want to free up time so that I can have more of it to spend building relationships, resting, and thinking of ideas.
