As an entrepreneur, balancing your personal and professional life can be difficult, which is why many people turn to writing down to-do lists.

Psychologist and author Dr. David Cohen told The Guardian his struggle to stay organized is helped by his to-do lists, which “must be on paper and need to be constantly monitored.”

“Cohen puts our love of to-do lists down to three reasons: they dampen anxiety about the chaos of life; they give us a structure, a plan that we can stick to; and they are proof of what we have achieved that day, week or month.”

Jeff, Mark, and Kristin discuss how to-do lists have been considered by some the ultimate resource in productivity but may actually be taking us away from doing meaningful work.
