If you were one of the millions of people who lost power this week due to snow and ice, you may especially appreciate this idea. It works whether your to-do’s are gathered digitally or on paper…
David Allen recommends grouping your to-do’s by the resources needed to complete them. This approach lets you maintain your productivity whether you have access to your network or just pen and paper (or anything in between).
Your task categories might look something like this:
Do Today!
Call or Email
Do on Network
Do on Computer
Do on Paper
Wait for (someone else to do)
And if the power goes out, your laptop battery is dead and your phone has no charge–revel in your day off!
