Use this tool to create a list of learning goals and make sure you stick to them. Most people keep their todo lists on pieces of paper (which has its upsides!) But many other people have found it useful to have their todo list on their computer as well. They spend much of the day working on their computer, so it is always there - paper can easily get misplaced - or sometimes you forget to bring your list with you when you leave.
