Five time management tips + resources useful for you (and me)

Image by rawpixel.com

1️⃣ Start small (make a to-do list).

I know being productive can seem really hard and stressful sometimes, especially if you have a thousand things to do. But the best way to start decluttering your mind is to write down absolutely everything you need to do, aka, a to-do list. You can keep a monthly to-do list, and then break it down into a weekly to-do list, to finally turn it into a daily to-do list. Lastly, you can keep a master to-do list, which combines the three types of to-do lists mentioned before. I personally use Microsoft To-Do.

2️⃣ Prioritize (classify your tasks).

After you have your daily to-do list ready (preferably, however you can do this with your monthly, weekly or master to-do list if you would like to), what will help you identify what should your next step be is assigning a level of importance to each task, aka, prioritizing. To classify the tasks you can assign numbers (i.e. 1-10, 1 being the most important and 10 being the least), letters (i.e. A for most important, and Z for the least), the Eat that Frog method (classify the tasks by starting with the most important and bigger one first, and then doing the next most important one, and so on). I personally prefer the Eisenhower matrix, which is a very simple way to classify tasks by urgency and importance. It basically consists in creating four categories or quadrants: urgent-important, urgent-not important, not urgent-important and not urgent-not important, and assigning one to each one of your tasks. It should look like the image below.

3️⃣Make the time (schedule each task).

After you have a clear vision of which task you should start with, the next step should be assigning it a specific date, time and duration, aka, calendar blocking. Your calendar or schedule works like a vision board but for your tasks. It will give you a clear idea of which tasks, in which order and for how long you should work. I like to use a physical desk calendar for monthly tasks, and a digital calendar for weekly/daily tasks. If you would like to know more about calendar blocking, check this video, and if you would like to have an aesthetic Google calendar, check this video.

4️⃣Break 'em down (break big tasks into small chunks).

If a big task still feels overwhelming and terrifying, a technique that can really help is breaking it down into a step-by-step plan, aka, turning it into small chunks of work. In his book Eat That Frog, Brian Tracy explains it like this: "Break large, complex tasks down into bite-sized pieces, and then do just one small part of the task to get started." To make it even easier, you can assign a Pomodoro timer to get started with your first small chunk, or you can apply the 10 (or 5) minute rule.

5️⃣Create a system (find what works for you).

At this point, I am pretty sure you ended that daunting task, you completed your most urgent and important tasks, and you feel like you can do anything; and, of course, you're completely right! Now that you have the key to your productivity success, then turn it into a system; find what methods, tools, schedules and setups work for you and stick with them. Remember, isn't about what works for others, it's about a system that serves you. How to start? Check this video on creating systems by Rowena Tsai.

Mastering Time Management: Your Ultimate Guide to Boosting Productivity

Welcome to a journey of self-discovery and increased productivity! In this article, we're diving deep into the realm of time management techniques. Buckle up and get ready to transform the way you use your time, as we explore practical strategies that will supercharge your efficiency.

The Art of Time Management

Time management is not just about squeezing more tasks into your day; it's about making every moment count. By utilizing effective techniques, you can regain control over your schedule and make room for what truly matters.

1. Prioritize with the Eisenhower Matrix

Imagine having a tool that helps you categorize tasks effortlessly. Say hello to the Eisenhower Matrix. This interactive method divides tasks into four quadrants: Urgent and Important, Important but Not Urgent, Urgent but Not Important, and Neither Urgent nor Important. Try it out:

Quadrant I: Tackle urgent and crucial tasks head-on.

Quadrant II: Dedicate time to important tasks that aren't pressing.

Quadrant III: Limit time spent on tasks that feel urgent but lack importance.

Quadrant IV: Minimize activities that offer little value.

2. Embrace the Pomodoro Technique

Staying focused can be a challenge, but the Pomodoro Technique turns focus into a game. Set a timer for 25 minutes and commit to working on a single task. Once the timer rings, reward yourself with a 5-minute break. After completing four cycles, take a more extended break. This technique keeps you engaged and prevents burnout.

3. Conquer Procrastination with the Two-Minute Rule

Procrastination, meet your match: the Two-Minute Rule. If a task takes less than two minutes, do it immediately. This simple rule transforms small, nagging tasks into quick wins, clearing your mind and your to-do list.

4. Unlock Productivity with Time Blocking

Picture your day as a puzzle, and each task as a piece that fits perfectly. That's the essence of Time Blocking. Divide your day into segments and allocate specific tasks to each block. This technique minimizes multitasking and ensures dedicated focus on each activity.

5. Start Strong with "Eat That Frog!"

Do you have a task that's been haunting your thoughts? It's time to "Eat That Frog!" Based on Brian Tracy's book, this method advises tackling your most challenging task first thing in the morning. By accomplishing the hardest task early, you set the tone for a productive day.

Put Your Knowledge into Action

Now that you're armed with these techniques, it's time to put them to the test. Open up your calendar or to-do list and start implementing what you've learned. Remember, consistency is key, so don't get discouraged if it takes time to adjust. Here's a fun challenge to kick things off:

Day 1: Prioritize your tasks using the Eisenhower Matrix.

Day 2: Dive into the Pomodoro Technique and experience focused bursts of productivity.

Day 3: Conquer procrastination by applying the Two-Minute Rule.

Day 4: Try Time Blocking to allocate specific time slots for tasks.

Day 5: Embrace "Eat That Frog!" and tackle your most challenging task first.

Stay Engaged with Your Progress

Keep a journal or digital tracker to monitor your progress. Reflect on how these techniques impact your productivity, stress levels, and overall well-being. Share your journey with friends or online communities to stay motivated and accountable.

Conclusion: Your Time, Your Mastery

Time management is not a one-size-fits-all solution; it's a customizable journey. Experiment, adapt, and adopt the techniques that resonate with you. Remember, the goal is not to be busy for the sake of busyness, but to be productive with purpose. "Contact Your Mind" invites you to dive deeper into your potential, one productive moment at a time. Your time is now—make it count!

5 Books Every Entrepreneur Should Read For Success

Entrepreneurship is a journey filled with challenges, risks, and opportunities. While experience is a great teacher, learning from the insights of those who have already walked this path can accelerate growth and minimize costly mistakes. Over the years, I have found that books play a crucial role in shaping an entrepreneur's mindset, providing invaluable lessons on leadership, strategy, financial management, and innovation. Here are five books that I believe every entrepreneur should read to build and scale a successful business.

1. The Lean Startup – By Eric Ries

One of the biggest mistakes many entrepreneurs make is spending years perfecting a product before launching it, only to realize that customers don’t need it. The Lean Startup changed my perspective on business growth. It emphasizes the importance of testing ideas quickly, gathering customer feedback, and making iterative improvements instead of waiting for a "perfect" launch. The concept of the Minimum Viable Product (MVP), which means starting with a basic version of your idea and improving it based on real-world data, is something I apply in every project I work on. If you want to build a business that grows sustainably, this book is a must-read.

2. Zero to One – By Peter Thiel

In today’s world, competition is fierce. If you’re simply copying what others are doing, you’ll always be fighting for survival. Zero to One taught me that real success comes from creating something unique that no one else has built before. Instead of competing in an existing market, Peter Thiel encourages entrepreneurs to develop innovative solutions that give them a monopoly-like advantage. Whether you’re launching a tech startup, a fintech company, or a traditional business, this book will make you rethink your approach and help you find your competitive edge.

3. Eat That Frog! – By Brian Tracy

One of the biggest struggles entrepreneurs face is time management. There are always multiple tasks to complete, but not all tasks are equally important. Eat That Frog! is a book that helped me understand how to prioritize tasks effectively, avoid procrastination, and get things done. The phrase "Eat That Frog" means tackling the most important and challenging task of the day first, so everything else feels easier.

This book taught me:

How to identify high-value tasks that contribute to business growth.

The power of focus and discipline in daily work.

How to eliminate distractions and work smarter, not harder.

If you often feel overwhelmed with work, this book provides practical strategies to boost productivity and efficiency.

4. The Hard Thing About Hard Things – By Ben Horowitz

No entrepreneur is prepared for the challenges that come with running a business until they actually face them. The Hard Thing About Hard Things is one of the most brutally honest books I have ever read about entrepreneurship. Ben Horowitz doesn’t just talk about success; he talks about the difficult decisions, the failures, the pressure of leadership, and the struggle of making tough calls. Every entrepreneur will eventually face moments of doubt, setbacks, and critical decisions. This book provides real-life business lessons, from hiring and firing employees to handling market downturns and making tough choices. It reassures entrepreneurs that struggles are a part of the journey and offers practical advice on how to navigate them successfully.

5. Rich Dad Poor Dad – By Robert Kiyosaki

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned in my journey is that making money and managing money are two completely different skills. Rich Dad Poor Dad taught me that financial success isn’t about earning a high salary—it’s about how well you manage, invest, and grow your wealth.

This book explains:

The difference between assets and liabilities—and why most people buy liabilities thinking they are assets.

Why passive income is the key to financial independence.

How to build long-term wealth through investments and smart financial decisions.

Entrepreneurs often focus entirely on business growth but neglect their personal financial health. This book shifts your perspective on money, making it a must-read for business owners who want to achieve financial freedom.

Books have been my silent mentors, guiding me through different phases of my entrepreneurial journey. These five books will help you develop the right mindset, avoid common pitfalls, and build a business that thrives in the long run. Entrepreneurship is not just about having a great idea—it’s about executing it with the right knowledge and strategy. I encourage every entrepreneur, whether they are just starting out or looking to scale, to invest in continuous learning.

If you're serious about business growth, financial success, and leadership, start with these books. Keep learning, keep innovating, and most importantly, keep moving forward.

Master Your Day and Eat That Frog

“The first rule of eating frogs is to eat the ugliest one first.” I know I usually post Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, but this week you’re getting Wednesday instead of Tuesday because I’m testing the algorithm. If you’re familiar with my blog, you know that I once said that if I could only pick 5 self-help books, “Eat That Frog” by Brian Tracy would be the first one I’d have someone read.…

Tips & Tricks Tuesday: A thorough setup for flexible and handy organization

Happy New Year! As you get organized for 2025, it can be a good time to review your tasks, lists, and organization setup. 

We really love this very thorough setup that covers a lot of bases, both in terms of organizing things you want to keep track of, and helping to surface them as needed.

So grab a coffee or your favorite beverage, cozy up, and here's to an organized year!

I thought I'd share my current setup using RTM, which is a conglomeration of various productivity methods I've read and digested over the past few years. I definitely think that whilst GTD has its place, I often found myself trying to manage my system too much and not actually getting things done. The thing that made me adapt my workflow was reading Eat That Frog by Brian Tracy, as it highlighted the fact I wasn't getting the big jobs that I needed to do done and instead spent days hoovering up the smaller tasks instead of tackling the big ones. The book explains that the things that will move you forward the most (Frogs) are the things you tend to procrastinate on the longest, and these should be the things you tackle first. If you have a list of frogs, and a list of other smaller menial tasks, the biggest frog should be the first thing you tackle that day until it's eaten up, then move onto the smaller tasks. It made perfect sense to me, really, but took quite a large change in my own self discipline; however, I feel it's made me more productive. So here goes, pour yourself a coffee as this could be quite a long one.

Read the full forum post to find out all the details.

Do you have a suggestion for our weekly Tips & Tricks post? Got an interesting set-up or idea? Head over to the Tips & Tricks forum, add a new topic, and let us know how you use Remember The Milk. Each week we’ll give away a 1 year Pro account to the user whose idea inspires the Tips & Tricks Tuesday blog post for that week.
