A Note on Being Productive...

To-Do lists are essential to my life. Without them I lose track of not just time but relative importance as well. I tend to be clearer minded in the morning as opposed to later in the day so I need to make my list early on before other things pop up and distract me (happens at work all the time). It doesn't have to be long - just efficient. I even plan time to goof off a bit or accomplish something enjoyable (like reading a book).

Right now I have Any.Do and Wunderlist on my phone. I use Any.Do for more general, day to day things that are just my problem. It is very quick to add and subtract from and organizes tasks very basic ways. 

Wunderlist is more of a power feature app. Lists can be broken in to sublists, tasks assigned, and notes given. When one general task, like shopping or apartment things, have sub tasks I use Wunderlist. Plus, it is far better at sharing tasks with other users. Downside is that it is clunkier and slower. That, however, is usually the price of power.
