"Hi, I'm Ann Myrick and today I'm going to show you how to do a To-Do list. The biggest thing you need to think of as far as your to do list is whatever it is that you're doing, do it at or in that place. If your to do list has to do with a grocery list, then it's better to do it in the kitchen and be able to look in your cabinets, look in your pantry and be able to be efficient and just write it down as you're there. If your to do list has to do with organizing a room, be in that room. If you're going to organize a desk, I mean, I'm sorry. If you're going to organize an office, you want to go into that specific office, sit down and look around. Organizing letters, organizing, getting, organizing baskets and things that you need to be able to organize. Just make a list that really covers the items you need, what you need to do, why you need to do it and make it very concise. This is Ann Myrick and that is how to write a To-Do list."
