Only have 3 things on your To-Do List! If you try this then I think you’ll find that it I have found it to increases your productivity and work satisfaction significantly.

The 3-Item To Do List is as simple and profound as it sounds. At the beginning of each day, take time to identify the three most important items for to accomplish. Three items—all significant, all important, all entirely manageable. Now, almost certainly, there are other work-related things I will do today: post to Facebook, answer e-mail, text a peer. But my three main identified projects will always take precedence.

The short list approach keeps me focused on the most important tasks I need to accomplish. But I have found other benefits as well. The shorter list keeps me from feeling overwhelmed. The shorter list also helps me overcome procrastination—the finish line is always in sight.

Try setting your self 3 Tasks a day and see if it helps focus your mind and leads to a more productive day!
