FAQ.

Planning is the initial, thought and logistical activities before the actual execution. Planning can be linear so that it is completely completed before the start of implementation – or it can be dynamic so that it continues throughout the implementation of the activity.

Planning is the key to getting an overview.  When we have an overview, it gives us peace and the opportunity to focus for a longer period of time. Without an overview, we have a high probability of spending a lot of unnecessary time to, for example, constantly have to decide: “what should I do now”, “what is most important”, “what do I want to do”.

If you want an overview of your day, the first thing you should do is place incoming tasks and appointments in a very simple prioritization scheme. When you prioritize your work tasks, you  get more energy to solve them. Efficiency is about being able to prioritize!
