When we start to follow our to-do list often we focus on two tasks simultaneously or one task and we focus only on task. Hence task consumes much more time then our expectations. In timeboxing, we focus on time instead of a task. and it encourages us to complete a task asap. In that, we breakdown a whole task into subtask with fix time (Include leisure time). Hence we accomplish a whole task in less time as we scheduled in the to-do list.
