Many entrepreneurs wish there were more hours in a day to get everything done. And while most people rely on their to-do lists, May has spent the last year perfecting her process that ensures she gets everything she needs done in a timely manner. The first place to start is by brain dumping on a piece of paper all of the tasks you need to complete in both your business and personal life. And then organize your to-do list based on the priority these tasks need to get done and see if any of these things are able to be delegated to someone else. To ensure that you hold yourself accountable, May explains that you need to write down the potential consequences of not completing that item.

The reality is that most of the time, we pack our schedules with too many things and expect to get it all completed. But by following May’s five-step process, you can make the most of your day without becoming overwhelmed.
