If you are a person who hates “being a slave” to your to-do list, this episode is for you. I break down the exact process I use to create lists that free up my brain space, move the needle on projects that matter to me, keep track of looming deadlines, and permit me to ignore everything else. If you think you’re not a “list person” I challenge you to listen to this super tactical episode.

What we discuss

• A reminder that productivity is a nice goal but a terrible god
• What to-do lists are
• Why and How to-do lists work
• The process I use to move from Mind Dump to Daily List
• My favorite tools for list-making
