The “MIT” solution — How to identify one key task each day to make consistent progress
Do you sometimes not want to start your day when you look at your to-do list in the morning?
Do you see 34 tasks, 33 of which you either dread or don’t see the point in?
You have to walk the dog. Write a blog post. Answer emails.
Then you’re supposed to walk the dog again. File some papers. Call a prospective client.
I get it. To-do lists can be a burden. Not too long ago, I had the same problem.
My to-do list looked like this:
No order, no specific tasks and don’t you think I would just make lunch when I feel hungry?
As a result I felt stressed and had lots of days where I didn’t make any progress towards my important goals, because the tasks relating to them just got left on the wayside.
Do you know the feeling?
But ever since defining my ONE GOAL, I knew there had to be a simpler way for this as well.
That’s when I found MIT.
