About this listen

The simple to-do list can be a mighty productivity tool - after all, you’re 33 percent more likely to do something if you write it down. A list of tasks can help you approach goals in a more intentional way, set the right priorities, and hold yourself accountable. And that can help you achieve more at work and in your career.

Productivity expert Paula Rizzo shows how you can use lists to your maximum advantage. She helps you assess the work you have in front of you and identify how to best spend your time - figuring out what to work on versus what to delegate, what’s important versus what can wait. From evaluating tasks through the lens of your top priorities to embracing your own productivity rhythm and scheduling free time to recharge, her tips will empower you to accomplish more of what’s meaningful.

Key takeaways:

  • The four-step formula for creating a list-making system that will work for your life
  • What a “distraction placeholder” is and how to use it
  • How to find your personal productivity style and use it to schedule your days more effectively
  • Why an accountability buddy can be the secret to getting things done
  • How to stay productive when working in a group
  • What a “to become” list is and how it helps you envision your dream life

Paula Rizzo is the best-selling author of Listful Living: A List-Making Journey to a Less Stressed You and Listful Thinking: Using Lists to Be More Productive, Successful, and Less Stressed. She is an Emmy Award-winning television producer of more than 20 years and a media strategist and trainer. She also founded the productivity site ListProducer.com and cocreated Lights Camera Expert, an online course geared toward helping entrepreneurs, authors, and experts get media attention.

Liked it

In conclusion,
the lists I got pumped to make:

~ To do list (which I usually make)
~ Not to do list (remove the task you don't want to do but it keeps coming up and you feel guilty about it)
~ Things that spark joy list (things I can do when I get some spare time in the moment of scheduled item)
~ To become list (the bigger picture, what I want from life)


It was cut short and useful! Great listen <3

Good one

She is right. Making the list makes us forget the task of memorizing what needs to be done. I hope her ideas will help me too.
