Taming Your To-Do List

Combining practical, easy-to-apply advice with solid research and biblical truth, this book is a compassionate yet challenging message of hope for women struggling to choose their best work over busy work. No matter how much we accomplish in a day, we nearly always feel a little guilt over what we didn't do. Taming Your To-Do List exposes a seismic shift in society: from one in which most of us were proactive to one in which we carry the burden of having to respond--to every email, text, tweet, and message we receive. This creates a cycle where everyone else sets the priorities for our days rather than us directing our own lives. The result? We procrastinate, putting off the important stuff for later while we tend to the "urgent" stuff right now. It's time to take back your schedule! Ready to tame your to-do list? This book shows you how. Whitwer combines biblical truths and quotations with practical, easy-to-apply advice to help you manage your time. Social media has shifted the burden of communication from the sender to the receiver, and creates a cycle where everyone sets the priorities for your days. By recognizing God's purpose and plan for your day, you will become resistant to the temptations of procrastination, and choose your best work over busy work
