your ability to clearly define what a high value task is.
In the video, I share with you 4 critical do’s and don’ts to follow when making your “5 before 11®” list. I would challenge you to apply these daily planner tips everyday for the next 7 days. Without some form of routine for examining the items you put on your list, you are very likely to grab for tasks of limited value. Do that too often and you will never see the results you long for.
Of all of the strategies for time management that I know, the “5 before 11®” list is perhaps my favorite and the most powerful. I am curious–What do you think makes for a high value task? I would love to hear. Please comment below.
Wishing you great meaning and productivity everyday,
John Arnold

I find it challenging to come up with 5 items, because what I really need to do (and what is sometimes difficult) is to focus on one project at a time (I’m a copyeditor), especially at this time of day, when my thinking is the sharpest! Suggestions?
Hello Ruth:
Sorry for the long delay in responding to your comment. I took a bit of a hiatus from writing. I loved your question though and decided to answer it in a post because I suspect other people have similar issues. I know I do and have just started conquering them by combining some strategies.
