Bring Colours to Your Work

Tasks are different, some tasks are important but not urgent, some tasks are interesting but not important and some tasks are important but terribly boring. Obviously, we tend to solve interesting tasks but postpone other tasks. Moreover, if all tasks have the same appearance we just don’t notice hard/unpleasant/boring tasks. So first things first tasks should be visually different so that a colour identifies the nature of this or that task. Then when planning or reporting you or your boss sees how much you spend time on various kinds on tasks and that will be seen right away.
