A checklist let’s your subconscious forget about your tasks and frees mental RAM

The book "The Checklist Manifesto" - is a great read. Helped me not get fired.

As a 17 year old with severe anxiety, I make checklists for EVERYTHING. For what I want to accomplish in a day and how to, what I want to accomplish in 5 years and how to. It is an absolute game changer that gives that control and a plan and I absolutely love it

In 2010- People used to read self help books to get " motivated".
In 2020- Same people are watching YouTube channels.

Checklists also help when you're faced with a long list of things you need to work on, and it's distracting how long the list is. If you write down say just the things you want to get done that day, you can ignore the rest of it and focus on them. Then the following day, add more for that day.

The incredible power of checklists is that once you have understood how to divide a process into small and easy to perform tasks (like packing your things for a trip), you can implement it correctly and get it right every time.
This divide and conquer (and save the steps) method allows you to take on bigger projects and accumulate the mastery of more and more processes with time.

I've always made "to do lists" not "checklists". I realise now there's a subtle difference. It's not about what you have to get done, it's about establishing a process (or a system) to help you get things done (those things you need to do regualrly) more efficiently. I like the idea of reflecting on your current process too and refining it. Thank you for this - I'm really hoping it'll help me.

Checklist is underrated. This is an effective way of executing a task of consistent quality.

We learned to read and write as children and yet- it’s so rare to see someone taking advantage of these abilities.

As a project manager I use checklists for everything in my personal life as well. I’m the most organized person and it helps me free up my brain for fun stuff. I highly recommend checklists for everything.

Hey Matt, I was always wondering what's inside the notebook that I see in every video. I would really love to see a video where you get us a look inside it!

Checklist for checklists:
* Observe your process
* Repeat your process
* Refine your process
* Teach your process to others

I’m always suspicious when people claim to have impeccable memory and therefore not have to write things down. Without checklists and all kinds of notes I would never have survived grad school. When you stop trusting your brain to store information and get it organized on paper you are capable of so much more

Tip: If you want to be happier, healthier and have more energy in life. Take action and define what motivates you to change and look at them every day.

I love that you're weaving in more and more humour. It's noticable and relieves the tension during longer information-dense moments. Keep up the good work Matt! love from poland!
