I live by this mindset – “Progress, not perfection.”

In that spirit, my GTD (get things done) methodology boils down to:

• New incoming task? Triage, Prioritize, Delegate/Fix it ASAP
  • Add it to your task list
  • Add your task list to your calendar
• See a small thing you can do immediately? Do it now
• Know your limits! Delegate or offload work that can be better/faster completed by someone else. Be realistic on what resources you have so that you can paint an accurate picture of what you can achieve

Momentum – once I start doing something I’m in the zone and I will keep going. That’s why you start by doing one small thing.

If it doesn’t work out, be kind to yourself – it’s (probably) ok, and you can try again later.
