I'm confused - where's the eighth word?
Apart from that, I liked this article. It's not too deep, it doesn't contain Earth-shattering advice, but it has served to re-focus my efforts to get things done in a mountain of tasks, obligations and distractions.
Great advice. I find that any to-do list that I use on my computer distracts my flow because I flip to another window or get away from my browser/Textmate work and try to find the thing to tick. There's something enormously satisfying about crossing out something you've written onto a quality notepad.
Do whatever is necessary to do the (most important) items on your list. ... and when nothing obviously is needs to be done now, look at your list, and do more. Then go home and relax.
Pure wisdom. The entire article is so enlightening. I didn't know I should do something during the day and then go home and relax. I always thought it was quite the opposite.
