Musings from Dennis #49: Just three. One of the best advices I received at work was from my immediate boss while at Disney. You see my daily to-do list was long (aren’t we all the same?) and I try to accomplish as much as I can each day, many times leading to frustrations because inadvertedly something new will pop up and demand my immediate attention even if it was not on that list in the first place. “Dennis if you can complete just three tasks each day and allow yourself room like 40% of your day for new unplanned projects, it would have been a very good day already” You need not stress yourself unnecessarily because the work will always be there. How right she was as I began to incorporate this thinking and practice into my daily chores, then and now. Not always successful but still trying nonetheless!
