Ahhhh, feels so good to get to the bottom, doesn’t it? I started doing lists with only 6 “HAVE TO GET DONES” per day. I feel so much better when I go to bed knowing that I actually got 6 things DONE!

Congratulations! I know the feeling too – today I managed to do some things which I have been transfering from one daily to-do-list to the next day’s to-do-list. I was so glad that I celebrated it by having a nice ice cream.

Congratulations on getting to the bottom of your list. I know the feeling of satisfaction I get when I can check things off my own list. Like Elizabeth, I try to only assign myself one or two key work related tasks per day – so as to create a greater likelihood of completing everything on my daily list. And like you, I have also been taking serious stock in the list of commitments on my plate. As I continue to clear the decks of the non-essential obligations, I am finding more time to focus on my three “big ticket” commitments (work, family, and personal spirit).

And for your readers that like to incorporate technology into their planning structure I recommend checking out http://www.tadalists.com/ it is a cool tool that organizes all your lists online.

I know that feeling of being overwhelmed and can’t abide it for too long. Makes me hyper and I have to act on it. That’s why for the last 2 days I’ve been pretty tight with family time, hate doing that but I needed some dedicated time to clean up last week’s list before today.

Technically I didn’t clear it until today (6:00 a.m.):-)

Of course, like you said, there’ll be a fresh list to manage tomorrow!

Good for you! It feels good to finish that list, doesn`t it? Not that I would actually know . . .

What I’ve done is I have two to-do lists … my big “project list” (that will take weeks, if not months, to complete) and my daily “to do” list that can be completed in one day.

I find that if I don’t “finish” a list each day, I feel like I have not accomplished anything. So I engineer my list to be complete-able. Besides, most projects take more than a day & have multiple tasks, and I find that my to-do list should only lists Tasks (complete-able in minutes/hours), not Projects (takes days/weeks).

Great for you! And if it makes you feel even better about killing Moms Morning Show, I don’t miss it one little bit.

I agree those to-do lists can be a booger to complete! I am happy to say though I am too caught up, and starting the week out fresh. Yay! Heather [Girly Blog Designz]s last blog post..My Fave Plugins: TDO Mini Forms
