I am the spreadsheet queen. I am also forgetful; so, listmaking helps. They also motivate me to get things done.
I make my daily list then assign the value of A,B, and C to each item and form an agenda according to priority. "A" must get done, "B" should get done, and "C" would be nice to get done. I then group B and C together and reprioritize putting off that which isn't necessary. I used to do this at work incidentally which saved my behind over and over as I was able to demonstrate to my boss the heavy workload I had. Anyway, if it wasn't for my daily list everything would get ignored or put off.
