Write your most important project (just one) in the top left-hand corner. List the to-dos for that project Protams, neviena (paš)palīdzības grāmata nevar izdarīt lietas jūsu vietā. Bet es ar to ļoti ātri aizrāvos, sāku pierakstīt principus un jau pirmajā nedēļā sāku dažus no tiem ieviest dzīvē. Laiks rādīs, vai es izdarīšu vai neizdarīšu lietas, ko sen jau gribu (bet nedaru).

This is an activity, moment or achievement that you can savor when the day is over. It provides a focal point to keep you away from the Busy Bandwagon or the Infinity Pool.

Control your phone So I went into this book like I usually do with these kind of books: Take what works and ignore the rest.
