Eat That Frog - Chapter 2 - Plan Every Day in Advance

Here are my notes from chapter 2:

• "Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now."
• Alan Lakein
• How to eat an elephant?  One bite at a time!
• "Taking action without thinking things through is a prime source of problems."
• Alec MacKenzie
• Six P Formula
• Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance
• Always work from a list
• Different lists for different purposes
• Master list
• Monthly list - create at the end of the month for the next month
• Weekly list
• Daily list
• Tick off items as they are completed.  It makes you feel the success.
• 10/90 rule - The first 10 percent of time that you spend planning and organizing your work before you begin will save you as much as 90 percent of the time in getting the job done once you get started.
