I use a digital to do list, so I duplicate the unfinished item, rewrite the original to describe what I did (tracking is very important to me), and move the duplicate to the day I think I’ll be able to get back to it. I add an estimate of the time. If I’m using a written list, I annotate what I completed and add the item to the next day’s list.
I do them the next day, try not to be too disappointed since it was my choice. Haha. But seriously, this app keeps me in check and on track, since I tend to bathe in anxiety and self-pity at times(mood swings and hormones, ugh). Through Fabulous, I can see that I am at least doing something habitual and not guessing what to do everyday.
Put them to the top of the list the next day; and ask myself why didn’t they gets done? Did I run out of time or am I blocking something?
I try to complete them as best I can and if I can’t then I continue tomorrow. P.S it helps if you write a to do list the night before
I think about why I didn’t get it completed. If I still think it’s important then I move it to tomorrow. Else I will throw the task away or move to a 'someday' task list. I can only move 3 tasks to tomorrow.
I make a note in the to-do list. Adjust my next days plans and make time to complete the remaining tasks
At the end of my day, I go through my planner and reschedule all the unfinished tasks, either for the next day or for another day when it makes more sense to get them done.
You push it to the top of the list for the next day. Tasks should be fun and challenges to see how many u can complete in that day. Whatever you didn’t finish won’t disappear it still needs to be done. Put in next days list in appropriate category of importance. If you’re Always pushing it than it needs to be on a “long term” list u can get to in a longer time span.
If at the end of the day you have incomplete tasks you need to reflect wether or not this happened because of factors out of your control. If this is a result of your own personal incapability to do the tasks maybe there’s something you can improve, like procrastination. You might as well want to consider putting only the important tasks on your list and focusing only on those and not a million unimportant tasks.
They are first on the list for the next day. I was actually advised to write a to-do list at the beginning of the week for the week and refer back to it all week. Eat the big nasty frogs first!! Also, to-do items are AFTER priority/project tasks. That’s made a difference for me, distinguishing between them. I review the list each day without rewriting it during the week. I no longer feel like I’ve got too much to do, because the week long list is longer than a "daily" list, but it’s not five times like. And I feel better all week as I cross things off!
