Proactivity advice from Jerry Seinfeld

I read this a while ago and thought I would give it a try. Instead of a wall chart I am going to use a little app that I wrote for my phone. It is like having a few of those wall planners that Jerry used and ticking off the daily tasks as you go. It's pretty simple at the moment and not ready for release, but it seems to be working for me. It lets you add a number of tasks that you would like to complete every day - stuff like 'exercise', practice some writing. Whatever you are trying to get into your routine.
So far I have Exercise, write this blog, read some of my novel (I didn't write it, Michael Connelly did), learn some Android programming and practice some unix tools. I reckon its important to avoid adding too many daily tasks to this as you could become swamped and never get anywhere.
More on the that tomorrow.
