Good Guide for Creating and Managing a Task List
This is a practical guide to techniques and strategies for creating task lists and is a good refresher even for veteran list makers. If you've already tried different methods, skip the first two sections (which cover reasons that you fail to get things done with your to-do list, assessment of your task management skills, and pros/cons of some common task management methods).
Start with Chapter 7 to learn the techniques for effectively creating and managing a to-do list, including the following:
* Have two separate lists - one for tasks to complete for the day and a big list for everything else. Each day, pick 7 tasks from the big list to be on your daily list.
* Have a batch list for tiny tasks - when you have extra time, batch these tiny tasks together and complete them in 15-30 minutes (such as start a load of laundry, take out the trash, make dinner reservations, pay the bills, send an email to the client, record yesterday's sales, schedule a meeting with coworkers, check voicemail, return a phone call, and declutter your desk)
* Indicate the desired outcome - write the task with a verb and the goal (for example, "call parents to see how they're doing and invite them for breakfast")
* Break projects down into small, manageable tasks - instead of "clean house" (which is vague and daunting to tackle), write "wash the dishes, mop the kitchen floor, clean the bathroom, vacuum the floors, and dust the furniture."
* Assign due dates for each task
* Estimate the time required to complete the task
* Organize tasks by projects, types, and locations (for example, tasks to complete at the office or at home, creative tasks that require focused attention, and mindless tasks)
* Review the list weekly to add and remove tasks - do a brain dump of all your tasks and remove tasks that are unnecessary or no longer consistent with your goals

Simple concepts finally clicked
I really enjoyed how the author took some glaringly simple concepts & explained them in a new light. One of the things I hadn't realized I was doing is putting projects on my daily list as if they were tasks. After making a few tweaks based on some suggestions from this book, I've already seen an increase in productivity.

Very very very basic
If you've never heard of a to-do list or tried to create one for yourself, and have no organizing common sense, then this book might be for you.
It offers nothing new, except maybe the idea of organizing the list also according to a project, type, and location (which he covers in 2 minutes).
Basically, just pick any known to-do system system that sounds interesting (probably Kanban or GTD by David Allen or Matrix by Stephen Covey), try it, and personalize it a bit so it fits you. If it sounds too complicated, then this book is for you. If it sounds like basic common sense, you can probably skip this book.

Goodod book on an important subject
As someone that regularly used To Do lists but has not developed one that worked as well as I hoped, this book presented some new options that I will experiment with.
The book begins with the basics so it will also be useful to a new user of ToDo lists.

The author was organized and thorough with how to set systems up and using what works for your style. I've listened and read a lot of productivity books and I would highly recommend this one. He talks about different popular systems and their pros and cons. I found this book so helpful that I purchased it in digital format as well.

Packed with great tips - super easy to follow
This book is excellent and covers a lot in a short space of time. The review of the 10 most popular to-do list systems is a great way to then introduce the new formula which improves on all of the systems. It's a real game changer for me as I'm now following the system unmodified (the book does suggest you can and should modify the system for you) and already giving me greater clarity and control of my activities. All aspects of a to-do list system is covered, you're never left wondering well what this or that. It's all here! Well worth the read.
