Typically at least 3. I like to split up larger tasked into smaller sub tasks because it feels like I’m being more productive when I get to check something off

I usually write my thoughts first. Once I'm done writing I synthesise actionable tasks from it. The tasks can be anything from 2-20. However, I always stick to the top three of the tasks.
I feel good about myself at the end of the day if I just manage to finish the 3. Next day, I tackle the rest

I only add the things that get me to my goal. If it does not directly help me achieve my purpose then it does not go on my to-do list. I don’t want to feel overwhelmed by menial task I want to look at the short list of things that means once accomplished I’m one step closer.

I add 6 or so. I always have one or 2 that are secondary and could be done later if needed. Top 3 helps to focus my day.
