James,

Thanks for providing this article. I have adopted it and it is working for me!

I have even started to share this with there a early talent group I mentor.

As you say the power isn’t in 6 tasks, sometimes I have less sometimes more (never >7). The real power is its simplicity and accountability (as I can clearly challenge myself at the end of the day for not completing a task).

I was honking a way to potentially enhance this is to “publically declare” your activities at the start of the day to your team/manager to increase the commitment to following through.

Thanks again
