Looking for a better way to manage your to-do list? Here are 4 different systems many people use! Both paper and electronic options!

productive and less stressed.

2. 1. PAPER
 Most basic to-do list
 Pen and paper
 Use margin to indicate urgency and priority
 To protect against loss, take photo on phone each day
Downside:
 Difficult to update without rewriting
 Loss can be devastating

3. 2. SPREADSHEET
 Some firms restrict cloud-based apps
 Using a spreadsheet for a to-do list lets you sort easily
 Spreadsheets can also be updated with minimal effort
 Include deadlines and priority status
Downside:
 Difficult to share
 Not visually appealing

4. 3. APPs (ToDoist/Wunderlist)
 Easy interface
 Syncs across platforms
 Cloud-based but also desktop application
 Can share projects with others
 Visually appealing
I use ToDoist and love it!
No downside unless you are not tech-oriented.

5. 4. NOTEBOOK
 Some paper users like notebooks for both notes and tasks
 Better to limit to just to-do items
 Take notebook everywhere so everything is in one place
Downside
 Loss is devastating
 Sheer volume can be overwhelming
 Difficult flipping back and forth to find tasks
My least favorite option – if you use it, please let me know
what I am missing!
