The Problem
Like many people, I struggled with traditional to-do lists. When I started working at a startup, I found myself drowning in an infinite sea of "good things" I could be doing.
I tried every system under the sun:
- Basic notes apps that became digital junk drawers
- Kanban boards that were too rigid for my workflow
- CRM-embedded tasks that didn't capture personal priorities
As someone juggling multiple roles and responsibilities, I needed more than just a place to store tasks. I needed a system that would help me focus on what truly moved the needle, not just what was shouting the loudest.
The "Aha" Moment
The breakthrough came when I started:
- Braindumping everything to clear mental clutter
- Applying my own twist to the Eisenhower Matrix
- Ruthlessly prioritizing my top 3 daily needle-movers
Inspired by Greg McKeown's "Essentialism, The Disciplined Pursuit of Less", I learned to separate the merely urgent from the truly important. The transformation was remarkable.
Suddenly, I wasn't just busy; I was effective. I started saying "no" to good opportunities to say "yes" to the right ones.
And the best part? I could finally breathe again.
