Taming the To-Do List: How to Choose Your Best Work Every Day by Glynnis Whitwer

★★★★★

Ever just wish the world would stop for a day so you could catch up? 

No matter how much we accomplish in a day, we nearly always feel a little guilt over what we didn't do. But do we really have more to do than the women who came before us? Maybe not.

In Taming the To-Do List, Glynnis Whitwer exposes a seismic shift in society: from one in which most of us were proactive to one in which we carry the burden of having to respond – to every email, text, tweet, and message we receive. This creates a cycle where everyone else sets the priorities for our days rather than us directing our own lives. The result? We procrastinate, putting off the important stuff for later while we tend to the "urgent" stuff right now.

It's time to take back your schedule! Ready to tame that to-do list? This book shows you how.

In a society that fosters busyness and procrastination, the to-do list seems to easily stretch too long and become unmanageable and overwhelming. Glynnis Whitwer, with her Taming the To-Do List: How to Choose Your Best Work Every Day, addresses the to-do-list challenges so many face, as well as the reasonings behind them. She offers interesting, helpful insight and both practical and spiritual tips for the to-do list and time management. It’s a valuable read and I would recommend it.
