Find yourself postponing e-mails to clients? I've been putting off "things I can do tomorrow" for a year, now⦠Does that sound like you? What you need is an extra push -- in the form of forceful ToDos. This may look like an ordinary ToDo list with a banana motif⦠But ToDos rot as time passes. Once a ToDo rots, you will be unable to check its content. Time to buckle down and clear ToDos before they rot!
