Done when

Today’s list contains tasks that realistically fit.

Move tasks that will not fit today to a clear later date or waiting list.

Who this is for

For an overloaded daily list; discuss fixed deadlines before moving them.

Why this matters

A list matched to available time distinguishes today’s commitments from later intentions.

How to do it

An original activity to try, adapt or skip for your circumstances; outcomes are not guaranteed.

  1. Compare remaining tasks with the time actually left today.
  2. Choose movable tasks and check who will be affected.
  3. Move them to a new date or waiting list and communicate necessary changes.
