3 / 365 Don’t
Do What Need Not Be Done!
Dost thou love life?
Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.
Benjamin Franklin
I’m sure you have
started logging your activities in a day. The contents of the activity logging
will give you a lot of information. But we have to analyse the data from the
voluminous information. For example, you should audit the quality of your day
by asking such questions as: Did I do justice for the day? Could I have been
even more productive?
By doing this you
will get a ‘not-to-do-list’. We know what a ‘to-do list’ is. A not-to-do-list
is a list of unnecessary activities, which ate into your time without adding
any quality into your day. This is something like the role of an editor of a
magazine or a movie, who cuts and
removes such portion which is not required.
Tonight before going to sleep, you should
list at least five activities which you should not have done. Remove them from your tomorrow’s to-do list!
(From my book “365 Exciting Ways to Live”)
