Three Simple Piles

Ever get stressed out because there's just too much competing for your attention? When that happens I often end up doing little or nothing.

Fortunately I've learned a great strategy for prioritizing: do it now, do it later or decide not to do it at all.

It's amazing how much stress this simple strategy can remove. Firstly, by letting me drop some stuff immediately when I decide that I really don't need to give it my attention, ever. And then by encouraging me to sort the rest into now or later. I'm then able to focus on a small part and get it done without getting all stressed out about what I'm not addressing at that moment. Works like a charm!
