Increasing Efficiency

"If an action will take less than two minutes, it should be done at the moment it is defined."
David Allen

As caregivers, we have far too many things to accomplish, so increasing our efficiency is one way we can have decrease our stress.  I notice how many people read emails or texts but do not respond to them right away, and that has always puzzled me.  It usually takes two minutes or much less to respond to an email or text, having read it, why not just answer it right then?  The same could be said for other tasks.  When we think of the task, if it takes two minutes or less, do it right now.  It adds to our stress to have things pending, and this is one very simple way to diminish stress -- while increasing efficiency.
