So little time. So many things to do. Chaos. Unless you have a list.
I write and makes lists for everything. Absolutely everything. To-do, grocery, shopping, housework, work, what to pack for a vacation, what’s in the box I’m packing for storage. Writing lists is a wonderful organization tool, not only for keeping you on top of things, but it helps with your sanity.
As a graphic designer, it’s invaluable with project managing. Nearly each project has different client contact details, artwork deadlines, production deadlines, changes and almost endless tweaks that have to be done. I re-write the lists everyday to make sure that I’ve covered everything and this allows me to add new things that need to be done.
If my to-do list is long, I re-write it in order of importance of time-sensitive projects. Moments of anxiety and panic are cleared when I start to tackle the first project on the list. Oh, the relief!
Losing you mind with errands? Write a list and tackle it. Blog entry done, now next on my list, back-up hard-drive.
