Time Management Tip
Cool/convenient lists to have
David Allen suggests some lists can be useful, fun, and interesting, that fit in the area of “reference” or “support.” Theses are a few that I keep on my PDA —encrypted as necessary.
Account and $ numbers- credit card #s, PIN #s, etc. (if you’re using a Palm you can put these in Tel/Add, make them “private”, and turn off the Private view so that you only can see those entries when you turn it on with your password.)
Basic personal numbers (self and family members)- drivers license, social security, insurance policies, Whatever you may need for yourself and others when filling out forms.
Birthdays- (if you don’t put them on your digital calendar system), group by date, as reviewable (those during a month, put in tickler for that month, etc.)
Gifts- organized by people and/or a general list of neat things to buy for others (fresh maple syrup from Vermont, styluses for Palms, etc…. and where to get them.) Great for birthdays, ad-hoc niceness, and Christmas time.
Ideas I don’t know what to do with, now that I’ve had them…- we all have them, and they don’t fit anywhere except in an “they don’t fit anywhere” place
Restaurants- for business or pleasure, to review for ideas instead of same-old same-old.
Style or product numbers I may need when I’m buying things- oil filter, vacuum cleaner bags, labeller cassettes, etc.
