This ONE DAY will help you shrink that to-do list

Say goodbye to never-ending to-do lists and hello to the power of overhaul days! We've all been there, juggling countless tasks that drain our energy and time.

But fret not, because it's time for a game-changing solution.

Imagine a dedicated day, solely reserved for tackling those important but perpetually postponed tasks. 

These dedicated moments give your brain and nervous system the much-needed respite, knowing that those pending tasks have a designated time slot. 

Whether it’s updating your website, refining your social media branding, or organizing your digital files, an overhaul day is your secret weapon.

Here’s how it works: 

  • Set aside two dedicated days each month, carefully chosen to fit your schedule. 
  • Compile all your pending tasks into a master list, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. 
  • On your designated overhaul day, settle into your workspace with your favorite beverages, delectable snacks, and an uplifting playlist. 
  • Shut off notifications, close unrelated tabs, and enter do-not-disturb mode on your devices. 
  • Then, methodically work your way through the list, savoring the satisfaction of completion.

What kind of tasks can I complete with an overhaul day?

It could be one larger project or category of tasks. 

I recently used an overhaul day to update all of my email nurture sequences and lead magnet automations. Perhaps it’s working on a platform migration – like moving all of your course content over to a new host. 

You could also use this time to work on a bunch of small tasks.

I’m thinking about updating your website, tweaking some workflows, organizing your inbox, updating spreadsheets or doing some data entry.

Remember, an overhaul day isn’t about finishing everything at once.

It’s about setting aside dedicated time to chip away at the backlog. As you wrap up, resist the urge to tackle more tasks—save them for the next scheduled day. Return to serving clients and focusing on activities that drive your business forward, free from the burden of miscellaneous distractions.
