focus on the next step

“waiting for “ is an action

consider delegating

a “delegate out” is a “waiting for in”

if the thing can be done in 5 minutes or less, do it right now.

15 minutes or more, deadline, calendar it

5-15 minutes, go it to the task list

always include date and time in your calendar or task list

leave space(at least 10 minutes) between appointments

0904 question : where is its home

everything has a home and no visitor allowed

keep contacts in one place

physical items: when in doubt throw it out

digital items: when in doubt keep it

categorize task and calendar items
