When to actually do the anytime-tasks

There are several tasks that don’t require continuity and you can easily interrupt yourself in the middle of the tasks and come back to it in sometime, and then seamlessly continue your work. These are the tasks that we need to do whenever we get time every now and then (for instance, in a long drive or at office when you are waiting for someone for 20 minutes etc).

Let’s call these tasks anytime-tasks (coz we can do them anywhere, anytime). The two points to keep in mind when dealing with the anytime-tasks are: Don’t have a dedicated time allotted for the anytime-tasks coz you always have gaps in a normal workday that are more than sufficient for you to finish these tasks, and note these tasks somewhere coz we usually don’t remember them, simply coz they aren’t so important to us.            

The anytime-tasks that I gotta do whenever I find time: Find and download scrum alliance e-book, calculate the total amount from the bills I have in my bag that I need to submit in my office, and read the FUN section of my reader.google.com, and wait for it…engage in Facebook and twitter (yes! It’s an anytime-task).
