I don't
know that I'll get everything completed on this list but it gives me something tangible
to work from. I'm much more apt to get
things accomplished if I write down what it is I want to get done.
Do you
make To Do lists? What kinds of things
are on your lists this month?
Great list! :) I make mega lists.. haha!! I'm the queen of list-makers, but they help motivate me!
ReplyDeleteI am always so impressed with all your accomplishments Carla. I know my lists help motivate me.
DeleteI am not a list maker. When I make grocery lists, I always forget them at home!!! It drives my husband nuts :)
ReplyDeleteI just do things as I think of them...when I think of them, if I think of them. My memory is spotty :)
I wish I could just remember to do stuff. If I think of something I have to write it down or its gone. I swear if it wasn't for my lists I'd never get anything done and good luck going into the grocery store without my shopping list. That is a complete disaster! :)
DeleteI do make lists, for everything. When my children were home, they preferred written lists for chores instead of me verbally telling them what needed done. They liked crossing things off and they saw verbal instructions as nagging.
ReplyDeleteLists keep me on track, sometimes I get everything done but often stuff gets carried over to the next day or week.
I do know I get far more accomplished with a list than without one.
