thanx for the insightful reply. will definetly read your articles. I agree with you. Trello is a nice tool but it is just the digital version of something preexistent: be it post-it or any other prioritization board.
I agree with doing one thing at a time, and I take for granted that that thing must be the right one. I know that this is one of the hardest thing to do - because we tend to postpone things that we dont like or scare us or are too difficult - that's why "eat the frog" is one of the best approaches for me.
Also regarding the right thing to do first i'd like to add that rather than productivity - we should focus on efficiency, as you said, AND effectiveness: doing lots of things badly but fast is not good, but doing the wrong thing in the best way possible is also useless :-) (and unfortunately I see everyday collegues - some of them very very good at coding which come out with very smart performant algorithms for problems that were not required or that - if they made some more questions or took less assumptions - were not necessary...)
Of course there is a lot to read and learn and practice to become productive/efficient/effective. i just wanted to be provocative and to remind myself to get back to work (i often read such articles exactly when I dont want to eat the frog... :-) )
