Every To Do List Template You’ll Ever Need process.st/to-do-list-template/

9/14/2016

To do lists shouldn’t take hours to set up, nor should they be complicated. Every second you spend setting up your task list and preparing for the work ahead is time wasted instead of getting out there and eliminating items from your schedule.

You should be able to jot down your tasks, have just enough flexibility to work how you need to, and then get on with it. After all, isn’t the point of a to do list to help improve your productivity?

Well, we here at Process Street decided to save you even more time by searching for a to do list template to suit all occasions. From general blank to do lists which are perfect for printing out and jotting down individual tasks, to templates helping to structure and track your entire week, or even the activities of a whole team.

We’ll be covering: General to do list templates Daily to do list templates Weekly to do list templates Team-based to do list templates If you’re after a particular kind of to do list then feel free to search the heading you’re after and skip ahead, but otherwise strap yourself in and feel free to grab one or more of the following templates to organize your important tasks.

11/13

What Is Your To Do List Of Choice?

Much like our best productivity apps, remember to only use one of these to do lists (or, at most, one from each category) in order to avoid getting bogged down with unnecessary tools. Better yet, if you find these to do lists lacking, grab them as a basic template to work off and customize to your needs.
