In his paper \u201cThe Impact of Planning on Project Success\u201d, Pedro Serrador from the University of Toronto points to a correlation between planning and project success. Based on the literature review, Serrador found that project success is closely linked to both project and cost-efficiency. It means that quality planning can not only increase the chance that the project will be completed successfully, but it will also be cost-effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So how much planning is \u201cquality planning\u201d? According to Serrador, after PMBOK\u00ae Guide, planning may take up to 48% of all processes performed by a project manager during a project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planning your daily tasks may be as simple as creating a to-do list consisting of must-haves and want-to-haves &#8211; time tracking tools with a user-friendly interface can be helpful.
