Thanks for the reply. My point was why categorize..to be this or that. Ironically, Christ was a Jew, but in his heart I am sure he rose above that label as well. In fact, to be Christian is to be Christ like and live his message. What was the message? Love, kindness, compassion, etc. If life as a Christian does not center around those ideals, well, you get the picture. It's really that simple.
Much Love,

The NOT to do list is so key, it has completely changed the way I structure my time in front of the computer. The mission critical tasks are really helpful as well as they allow you to really have laser targeted focus.
I now discipline myself not to move on to other tasks until the mission critical ones are complete. The pull to do the less important tasks are strong and it's easy to get sucked back into non productive activities.
It's a good practice to get into the habit of asking ourselves if our tasks are just keeping us active vs. productive. If not, we can easily get back on track.
Thanks for the comment!

Wow, I didn't know you did all those things! Gymnast and professional dancer..I'm impressed! While of course women (men too) want a good looking garment that performs well for their sport, it's important not to forget about the sustainability factor.
This is especially true for people who have a sincere desire to align with an earth friendly lifestyle which is vital to not just our personal health but for that of the planet as well. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. Pareto's law along side Parkinson's law have completely changed the way I structure my business and my time.
I feel a lot more focused and I have clarity on those tasks that I consider to be the most crucial like never before. It's so important we identify our strengths and focus our energy on what works and can be considered "mission critical".
It's very liberating to break free from "work just for works sake". Cheers!

So happy to hear this post added VALUE for you! Yes, getting help when necessary such as knowing what to outsource and what to do yourself is important so you do not waste valuable time.
Anything I can knock out fairly easily with out frustration I do myself. I outsource a bit as well such as website design and technical issues. I am always looking for solutions to help me do things myself but efficiency is key.
If I'm not being efficient, I know it's time to bring in some help. Thanks for the comments!

I agree with you 100%. There is no need to sit in front of the computer all day spinning wheels and being pulled from one task to another.
The to-do-list (as well as the not-to-do list) are meant to keep you focused on those "mission critical" activities that in actuality are productive.
Like you said, stay laser focused, knock them out and boom your done. The rest of the day can be used to do whatever else brings you peace and happiness!
