🎓 To-Do List Best Practices

The Two-Minute Rule

If a task takes less than 2 minutes, do it immediately instead of adding it to your list. This prevents list bloat and maintains momentum.

Time Blocking

Assign specific time slots to tasks. Instead of just "Write report", schedule "Write report 2-4pm". This creates accountability and structure.
