Description

In this episode, we discussed the importance of clarifying the difference between tasks and projects, and how viewing recurring tasks as projects can create clutter and leave tasks unfinished. We used the example of folding laundry to highlight the importance of completing each task in its entirety. Additionally, we explained how some tasks have multiple steps and should be broken down into smaller tasks, using the example of reupholstering chairs to demonstrate how a project can be chunked into smaller tasks. We suggested using a timer or stopwatch to budget time for completing tasks, and encouraged listeners to quantify how long each task takes and to plan accordingly. Finally, we provided tips for planning out and completing projects. To sum up, completing tasks and chunking up projects can reduce clutter and increase productivity, and we encourage listeners to implement these strategies in their own lives.
