I like this thought process. It's similar to one I already use and implemented while reading "Total Workday Control Using Microsoft Outlook" by Michael Linenberger. His hints about how to tag tasks as you write them down allows Outlook to automatically sort your projects while jotting down the relevant tasks necessary to complete them. Great minds think alike, I guess! - Tara Hi, Kyle.

I often find myself feeling overwhelmed with the number of things I need to do and the little time I have to get them done. For me, the section dealing with prioritizing and delegating really hit home. I think for a lot of us we feel that "WE" must complete these things ourselves or they won't get done right, but by setting proper expectations and by following up on those tasks we can delegate some of the more meanial work to others. Thanks for helping me refocus on what is important = ) I like the approach to tackling "To-do Lists."

I think the mind dump technique was very helpful to me as i was able to prioritize and set goals for what i wanted to accomplish in a set time frame. This was a very good read with useful info. Thank You. I usually find myself procrastinating about getting around to do stuff on my to-do list.

For me, I have to keep it so very simple. Even moreso than all you've suggested. I have to back up a step further and meditate. I've tried the way of going from feeling full of anxiety to shutting out all noises and starting to write lists. But if the noises in thought are still a blarin, I have to get calm first. And this I'm finding is key to my not feeling anxious on any level. In one sense it's like a mind dump because you dump out all that is blaring 'you can't get done everything you wanna' and other derogatory thoughts. But what you've offered is surely a full steam ahead plan once I"m calm and ready to roll.:) Thanks for offering this. Glad we're following eachother on twitter. Here's to keeping each other fueled. @tresha Hey Kyle, I appreciated the ideas of help embedded in this post. For me, I have to keep it so very simple. Even moreso than all you’ve suggested.
