THE VALUE OF A CHECKLIST
HAPPY SPRING–FINALLY!
The warm weather is finally upon us, the spring flowers are in bloom, and the “May 24 weekend” (as we like to call it in Canada) is just around the corner. Get outside and enjoy it whenever you can!
On a personal note–Congratulations to Melissa and Patrice who welcomed their baby boy Clément on April 19! I was thrilled to become a great aunt.
THE VALUE OF A CHECKLIST
When you start a task or project, do you jump right in and get started–without a plan? Are you satisfied with the outcome? Is it what you had hoped? If not, take the time to create a plan.
Time spent planning can produce amazing results. Yes, it will take some time to create the original checklist, but it will save you valuable time down the road. Having a plan should reduce your sense of being overwhelmed too!
A checklist is a great tool for repetitive processes–big or small. For large projects, you may only be able to use a checklist for part of a project. And remember, your checklist is not carved in stone. Consider it a work in progress, and revise it as required.
