Take a look at the words in the image below that Stephen Covey, Ph.D., wrote years ago. They may be true for you today. Awareness and courage will help you with this week’s Casey’s eTip: Break Free of the Runaround Dilemma.
I beg, plead, urge and exhort you to do your weekly review. It’s the lynchpin of an effective to-do system. Skip it for a few weeks and you’ll stop trusting your lists. Your brain will become cluttered again. The stress of remembering and juggling to-do’s will return. Ignore the thought that you don’t have time. An hour or two a week on project management is time you can’t afford to skip.
