"List panic" is usually a symptom of one of two things. One, not doing your weekly review, or two, having things on your next action list that should be in your someday or maybe lists. If you have active projects that aren't really very important to you, try dropping them into someday-maybe. You can choose to bump them back up on your next weekly review, and you weren't going to get to them before then anyway. » POSTED IN:
