BIS Publishers B.V. To Don't List: Project Planning for Creative People: Project Planning for Creative People
The ToDon’tList—method is the opposite of what all the time management gurus want you to believe. Do less instead of more. With this project planner it has never been so easy to focus on your goals. The author used the ToDon’tList concept a lot in his studio while brainstorming, developing new ideas or working on projects. “That’s a good idea, but let’s put it on the ToDon’tList for now”. In that way he kept his focus on his goals. The ToDon’tList concept became a method, and the method became the inspiration for writing Don’t Read This Book. Like the Don’t/Do This – Game, the ToDon’tList is an addition to the ToDon’t—Family, which works independently as well. The simple lists help you make choices and focus on many different levels: Life, Work, Projects, Daily Goals and more.

Whatever kind of creative person you are, this thought experiment game will get you out of your comfort zone. How? It stimulates creativity through limitation. Boundaries push you to think beyond the usual solutions and send you in different directions. That’s exactly how you end up with unexpected and extraordinary ideas. How to play You take 3 “Do” cards that define a unique imaginary project. You need to come up with a solution for this project. But you also get 3 “Don’t” cards, which give you a set of rules. For Example Do: Create clothing that is also a landmark | For two persons | To become more productive Don’t: Don’t use straight shapes | Don’t make the size static | Don’t use non-recyclable material The “Do” and “Don’t” cards make you think differently than you normally would. In the beginning, the rules might feel like a big obstacle. But once you start playing, you will see that limitations also give you possibilities. Rules make you think about loopholes. Play the game by yourself to get inspired, use it as a conversation starter or play it in teams to find out who comes up with the most surprising solution. The outcome could even be the beginning of a real project!

BIS Publishers B.V. Don’t Read this Book: Time Management for Creative People
As creative people, we have ideas. Some of us have many ideas, others have really good ones, and most of us have many really good ideas. But most of these never see the light of day. Why? If you ask a creative person, the answer will always revolve around time. We simply need time to execute an idea (and do it well)—more time than we have. Don’t Read This Book focuses on how to make choices about everything you do in your daily creative practice and life. The book follows the ‘To Don’t List’ method: When you say ‘no’ to one idea, you have more time to execute another one. In short: the more you subtract, the more focus and time you get. The book is divided into three parts: Life, Workplace, and Projects. It covers everything from defining your life goals, to writing a five sentence-long email, to leaving out as much as possible in a project. Whether you are a student or professional, this book will save you time. (Of course, if you don’t read it, you will save some time directly.)
