Summary
Kendra Adachi shares a simple strategy to tackle overwhelming to-do lists by distinguishing between "have-to" tasks (urgent, necessary) and "hope-to" tasks (important but not urgent, or aspirational). This method helps redefine productivity, viewing to-do lists as flexible tools rather than demanding bosses. By separating tasks based on timing, urgency, and personal importance, listeners can reduce stress and focus on living a more intentional life.Episode description
