Do you find yourself constantly getting overwhelmed by your to-do list and getting nowhere? If you’re stressed out looking at your list of To Dos that never seems to end you’re not alone. I’ve sure been there before many times. When we get overwhelmed it’s important to pause and ask ourselves what is truly important and prioritise.
Here is a system I first heard about from Joshua Becker at Becoming Minimalist to help keep you productive whilst taking out the stress of your to do list. Instead of writing a huge to do list with no structure or real plan, give this Three Item Task List Planner a go. See how to use this worksheet to manage your time and achieve your goals without the overwhelm.
How to Use the Three Item Task List
Simply save a copy of the file and print a copy of your Three Item Task List.
Pick up to three tasks that you need to do for each day of the week. The most important tasks that if you did them you would feel like you got ahead today and feel slightly less under the thumb. Write in what week you are in at the top and fill in the three tasks you need to do each day for the week ahead. You can mark in a rough time to get them done in the box to help you spread them out over the course of the day.
Of course if you get your three tasks done that day and feel like you could tackle more go ahead, the idea of this worksheet is to help you prioritise your task and tackle a small number each day so over time you make progress.
