Pastors have to juggle short and long term planning against the day to day situations of parish life. But what do you do when the day to day just keeps coming, and when there is no end in sight? Todd and Scott discuss Pomodoro Technique, Getting Things Done by David Allen, Evernote, John Chrysostom, Thielecke, and Taizé. And shaving. And a few other things along the way.
