"Back around the turn of the century, Ivy Lee, a renowned efficiency expert, promised the president of Bethlehem Steel that he could increase corporate efficiency and sales within 90 days – if he were given a chance to meet with each executive. Lee asked them to list, in order of priority, the six most important things they had to do the next day; any tasks not completed were to be added to the following day's list. Three months later, the company president was so pleased with the results, he sent Lee a check for $35,000, a huge sum at the time. Writing a daily list of things to do is one of the smartest things I ever learned to do. The beauty of lists is that they require you to write things down. If you trust everything to memory, you may never get around to doing even a well-thought-out task. I value my Six Most Important Things to-do list so much, it has been passed on to every Mary Kay Beauty Consultant. Once you work it into your routine, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. Try it for 90 days, and see for yourself."

My 6 List has been going strong now for over a year. I make it every night before I go to bed so I wake up with razor sharp focus for the next day of what needs to get accomplished. A lot of people ask me how do I teach school, sell Mary Kay, teach aerobics classes, have 3 children, sew clothes,…. Well, the 1st skill that I have, is that I want all of this to happen. When your WHY is pretty strong… Things get done! My 2nd biggest skill, is my list of 6. I’m so devoted to my list of 6 that now I have a new planner that incorporates the list of 6 already. You can see my older one was in a little notebook that I could put in my pocketbook and carry with me everywhere!!
