[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I write my todo in notepad. 
I save it as todo.txt
I added it to my startup folder

It's simple and totally unsophisticated but every time I turn on my PC it gives me my todo list on the screen. Being just text there's no setting priority or deadlines or other fancy crap. I just move things up and down by cutting and pasting if needed.

Also I block off 8 to 11am every day on my calendar.

I also outsource some of my work to India. Small stuff like organizing a a list, drafting an email, paying bills. it costs me about $200 a month, but allows me to spend more time relaxing. I just leave a voicemail for them on my way home from the office - they have some special system that lets me leave up to 30 minutes at once. I'll list off groceries in my head, tell them to prepaid the order and tell them to do it for delivery on X day. Or I'll tell them I want to take a trip in June and to send me flight costs for five or fix cities. Or I'll give them a simple research task (it has to be fairly simple) and ask them to send me some top results in a day or two. [/b]

Usually I walk in and have it in my email immediately. Worth every penny. I haven't been to a grocery store in 3 years. Passes my commute too. [/quote]

What now?  Tell me more...[/quote]
