We LOVE a good “to-do list.”

We hadn't previously heard of a “to-don't list,” but we learned a few things here and think these are great!

Examples on our To Don't List:
⛔checking email every 10 minutes
⛔trying to perfect low-priority work
⛔micromanaging good employees

Check out the article on to-don't lists from Shopify.

What's on your “to-don't list”?

How To Create a To-Don’t List To Improve Your Productivity (2026) - Shopify Having a to-don’t list can help you stay focused and eliminate habits and tasks that eat up your time and don’t align with your goals.

Happy World Productivity Day. 📊

A reminder that productivity is not:
❌ answering emails instantly
❌ scheduling more meetings
❌ working every evening

Productivity looks more like:
✔️ clear systems
✔️ better communication
✔️ focused work

And knowing what NOT to spend time on (like the bookkeeping. That's our job).
