The best approach for ticking off all the items on your ever-growing to-do list today is a personal one. As much as possible, you should do your business on a one-on-one basis. This will help you have more fun during the course of the day and remind you that people are essentially good. So turn off your computer and hit the road: going shopping, making reservations, even paying your bills, are all things you should do face to face with someone else.
