Today's Check it off tip is a reminder which may appeal to those who are more visually inclined, which some researchers say is about 60% of the adult population.
The use of color to help organize email groups/contacts, files as well as key events on your calendar are helpful in ordering a lot of information. These colors can help to sort and make it easier to get to information quickly. In an environment where we swim in data most days, anything we can do to get a handle of mass is usually good. Consider your email box. How much email do you get every day? What would happen if you color coded certain key corresponders? How might that help these stand out. Certainly as someone who gets more than a hundred emails most days, color helps me in knowing what needs follow-up and when.
Consider in your world, where color can support you in organizing, and getting more done in less time.
Have a great weekend,
