Juggling seven different lists for work, home, kids, and everything else? No wonder you can't figure out what to prioritize. When you're bouncing between multiple lists trying to decide what's most important, your brain goes into decision fatigue overdrive and suddenly everything feels urgent and overwhelming.

Here's the truth: the problem isn't that you're bad at prioritizing. The problem is that multiple lists are working against your brain's natural decision-making process. Today I'm sharing the simple shift that will transform how you approach your never-ending to-do lists and finally give you clarity on what actually matters.

In This Episode, I'll Cover:

  • Why multiple lists create decision fatigue and make everything feel urgent
  • The hidden psychology behind why separate lists sabotage productivity
  • When you actually need two lists vs. one (there's a specific rule for this)
  • How to reframe your relationship with long lists so they don't overwhelm you
  • The master backlog system that eliminates prioritization confusion
