Every time you create a to-do list, your page is filled with tasks, and most of them remain unchecked. And you’re left disappointed with your performance.

I dealt with this situation for a whole year until I learnt to simplify my to-do list to gain results.

Here’s how:

1-3-5 rule to create a short, effective, and result-oriented to-do list:

When creating a to-do list, add:

1 big, most important task
3 medium tasks
5 small tasks to complete

If you have more tasks remaining, follow this same pattern.

How it helps:

Focusing on one major task ensures you're tackling the most impactful and important goal rather than a long list of tasks.
It helps you organize better by aligning tasks with your peak hours and their importance.
It reduces the pressure of doing everything.

Share your experience after you implement this.

Update:

Not all tasks mentioned in your to-do list align with your goals.

Sometimes, it’s not about fixing everything but about removing unnecessary tasks.

To help you with:

- Increasing productivity

- Removing stuff from your To-Do list

- Identifying 20% for the 80% impact.
