Time Saving Tip #4

The Backlog is what I am going to talk about today. These are items that have to get done but they never do or they are big tasks.

For example...cleaning out the garage, paying bills, cleaning out the car, purging files, cleaning out the closet, blogging :p The list just goes on and on.

These items tend to be the ones that aren't that important but if we don't find the time to do them they end up becoming a priority later on.

So one tip is to create a backlog of items that need to get done that you don't like doing or need to get to so this way it doesn't get forgotten. Then use two SECRET WEAPONS...the NIKE hour & a timer.

I call this the NIKE hour because it is a just do it hour. Set the timer for one hour or if you just can't get motivated do 10 minutes at a time. The hardest part of any job is just starting...such is the case sometimes with blogging. Then when the timer goes off you can continue to keep going or stop...totally up to you.

Before you know it you'll have a bunch done. Try to do this weekly or at least monthly so you don't have emergencies to tend to later on.

Till next time...have an organized day.
