Productive Day

“Before, to-do lists were all over the place and my email Inbox was another to-do list, but I was overwhelmed with thousands of emails and I never knew where to start. I ended each day unsatisfied with my production, because I was not able to accomplish the tasks I set out to do each day. With Taskology, I’ve not only reduced the length of my workday, but I’ve also gained at least 1 ½ hours per day. I also spend at least 40% less time on email each day. Taskology has made it a lot easier to keep up. I have more time, I can do more planning and prioritizing, and I always know what I can accomplish from day to day. I feel more efficient, effective and productive. Best of all, I don’t take my work home anymore. There is no need to take my laptop home at night to catch up on email. I’m spending more time with my family and it feels great.”

“In the past, I didn’t have a consistent process for managing things to do and I was reactive to interruptions, multitasking and email. I was more reactive than productive. And I wasn’t managing email. Email was managing me. Now, with Taskology, I can concentrate more on my most important tasks and I can focus on one task at a time. Email is manageable now, too, and it feels really good to get to zero a couple of times a day. I’ve learned how to manage email more efficiently and I spend at least 50% less time on email every day. Plus, I have more time now and that time is more focused. With Taskology, I’ve saved at least 1 hour a day, easily. I can use my time to focus on leadership goals, revenue goals and working with my team. Plus, I enjoy more personal time for me. I feel tremendously more productive and a lot less stressed, and I’m looking forward to using this methodology for the remainder of my time working. Taskology has been life-changing.”

“With Taskology, I have total peace of mind. Everything is taken care of. I am now managing my tasks to a better and incredibly more efficient level and I am more in control of my time. I can put first things first and I’m not worried anymore about what I might have missed from the day before. It’s gratifying to have an easy process to handle email, too, and I actually look forward to getting email now, because I know how to manage it more easily. Every email gets addressed and it’s very satisfying to keep my Inbox at zero every day, often several times a day. Now, I’m in a position where I’m balanced and flexible so I can take advantage of some of the great opportunities that come along every week. I feel more efficient and productive, more at ease and less stressed, and I have more personal time to enjoy life. I’m getting more accomplished in a shorter period of time and by the end of the day, I feel great! Taskology = Success.”

“In the past, I used legal pads and a sea of post-it notes to plan my day, my week, everything. I had more than 7,000 emails in my Inbox, too. It was outrageous! To find things and know what was urgent was very difficult. It was overwhelming. I’d have no time to map things out so I was cramming all day long. I constantly felt in a scramble to keep up. It cost me time in my days and a lot of stress. Then I started a new role and what worked in the past wasn’t working anymore. I needed Taskology. Now I feel more in control and on top of things. There’s less static and clutter, and I’m making better, faster decisions. I have a better handle on the volume of what needs to be done and I’m more productive with my time. Email is the best because I have less than 50 emails in my inbox and I’m not drowning in email. I’m using Taskology every day and it is habit. I don’t feel overwhelmed anymore.”

“Before implementing Taskology, it was challenging trying to manage the various platforms and my responsibilities. Things would often fall in the cracks simply because of the volume of activity in which I was involved and the myriad of different places that information resided. Taskology became a simple solution. I don’t have to reference different systems to manage what I need to do each day. Everything is in one system and the process ensures nothing is forgotten. I have confidence that everything is taken care of and I have no concerns about remembering what to do. I’ve saved at least an hour a day and with that time I can do more things and I can do them better. I’m more focused, I feel more in control and I feel better at the end of the day. Taskology was a good system to learn during the pandemic, too. Nothing was missed or dropped during such a fast-paced time. I would have definitely spent more time and energy without Taskology.”

“I used to use a notebook for keeping track of tasks, but a lot of things would get lost. My email Inbox was a to-do list, too. It was almost impossible to keep up, and it was frustrating and stressful. Taskology simplified the way to manage tasks and email, and made my day so much easier. I have the time to actually do the things I need to do and I’m using time more effectively. I’m not wasting time looking for things like attachments, e-documents, email, or a task I may have written somewhere in my notebook. Managing tasks is just wonderful now with Taskology. The Task List just makes sense. It works really, really well for me. I also love the email process that I learned with Taskology, which makes managing email so easy. It’s not overwhelming or stressful anymore, and I can get to zero several times a day. I feel like I’ve doubled my productivity. I’m saving at least two hours a day and now I can be more proactive. I'm getting more accomplished. I’m relieved, I’m happier and I feel more efficient. Taskology is amazing.”

“With Taskology, it’s much simpler to manage tasks. I’ve learned that a system doesn’t need to be rigid to be effective. Taskology is flexible, and tasks and follow ups are much easier to manage. I’m more efficient in my actions and more effective with my time, especially because I don’t have to stop and think about what to do next. I’ve got my email Inbox under control and I’m saving at least 45 minutes a day by managing email more effectively. I’m also saving 20% of my time each day because I can find emails, attachments and documents when I need them. It could have taken me 10 or more years of experience on the job to get to this level of efficiency and effectiveness—or I may never have reached this level on my own—but Taskology has saved me this time and helped me become a better leader. I can do more high-level and strategic thinking and planning ahead, which have increased our levels of readiness and preparedness as a company. I feel more confident and in control and, as a result, I feel relief and a lot less stress.”

“I used to use to-do lists, daily planners, and flagged emails to keep track of things to do, but with tasks in different places, it was hard to prioritize. Important things were slipping through the cracks. As for my time, it was unfocused. I was wasting time trying to find things and got distracted by things that weren’t necessarily the most productive use of my time. Now with Taskology my day is easier, more systematic, less stressed and more in control. Everything is centralized. I don’t need to worry about forgetting things or finding things, and I won’t lose track of what needs to be done. I’m definitely saving more than an hour a day using Taskology and I am much less distracted and more productive with my time. Email is so much easier to manage, too. I know I can do what needs to be done each day, and I can definitely take advantage of more opportunities to generate revenue for the company. I’ve learned a lot of different systems over the years, but I didn’t fully use any one of them. Taskology is a lot easier than other systems to make an ingrained part of my day.”

"When I decided to learn Taskology, I didn’t know what to expect. I was doubtful it would truly change how I would manage my day, but it did. I’m much better off now than I was before. I love it. In the past, I used to manage tasks in multiple ways with paper notes, flagged emails, and excel spreadsheets. Tasks were all over the places, email was overwhelming and I spent time looking for things. With Taskology, I’m getting things done faster now. I have better clarity about when and how to get things done, and nothing is left out or forgotten. The fire drills are gone. Now I can plan my time, use it more wisely and achieve my goals. And managing email is easy. The process is seamless and has been instrumental in getting down to zero every day. I’m not as overwhelmed anymore and I’m not stressed about missing something. I have been reading books for 20 years trying to figure out how to better manage my schedule and the work I needed to accomplish. I feel way better now using Taskology. It’s better than what I expected. It’s awesome!”

“Before, I used my email Inbox as my to-do list in addition to using paper to-do lists, and I printed emails to remind me of things to do. I stored a lot of emails in email folders, too, which caused me to do a lot of searching when I needed to find something. My stress was high, I was losing time, and my efficiency and productivity were limited. Having learned Taskology, now I know what my true priorities are for the day, and I don’t come into the office each day to face instant chaos. I don’t spend time creating to-do lists on paper anymore and I don’t spend my weekend worrying about what the coming week would bring. Taskology is a ‘difference maker.’ I’m more efficient with planning and execution, and my stress is down. Getting to zero in my Inbox has removed the overwhelm and has given me a new attitude. I’m on top of things now and I feel like I can better handle what’s on my plate. I’m prioritizing better, procrastinating less, and I have more time for higher-level thinking and strategizing. And now I want my team to learn Taskology so we can be more efficient, focused and productive as a team.”
