Solution: Create your to-do list

“

- So how did you do on your challenge? Were you able to create your own to-do list? Here's my solution to the challenge exercise. First, I'm going to delete these tasks here because I want to start with a fresh to-do list. Organize it my own way. I'm going to organize my to-do list into two parts. Things that I have to do for work and personal things. Under the work area, I'm going to add finish recording course, which is what I'm doing right now. Next, I'm going to add a task to finalize my travel plans for the next couple months. And of course this task has a number of sub-tasks associated with it. Such as booking flights, hotels, and rental cars. So I'm going to add those as well. Next I'm going to add a project that's been in the works for a number of months. My company has been finishing a new website and there's still some loose ends that we need to tie up before launching. I'm going to add the task finish new website and I'll add some sub-tasks like, hosting, import users, test all links, check pages for typos, and notify all staff. I'll then add my work related calls that have to be made today. And under my personal tasks, I'm going to add a reminder for myself to replace the bathroom doorknob. I'm also going to add schedule an appointment with the dentist. And my friend Pete has a birthday coming up, so I'm going to add get birthday gift for Pete. This particular to-do list solution assume the tasks would be done within the day, but your to-do list could have been for the week or the month. Feel free to organize your to-do list in a way that works best for you. I hope this challenge exercise helped you get the big picture view of what needs to get done.
