The TA DA List: A Non-traditional To Do List to Get Your Focused on What Is Important to You | 8.5x11 Autumn Flowers

To Do List got you down?  What if you could feel good about everything that you accomplish each day instead of worrying about what didn't happen? Traditional To Do Lists left me feeling unmotivated at the end of the day because there were so many things left on the list that just didn't happen. I was crossing things off, but that left the focus on the things that were not, which made me feel, well, bad. I needed to turn that around. The TA DA list was born. I start by getting everything that needs to happen on paper so I'm not afraid of forgetting something. There is something about writing it down that clears the real estate in my brain - AKA - Brain Dump. I saw I was worrying waaaaay too much about things I couldn't do anything about that day. It's not like I need to take up real estate in my brain for something that isn't starting for several weeks (or months). Then I pick ONLY 3 things to focus on in my Personal Life and 3 in my Professional Life. From there, I jot down the tasks that get me closer to those priorities and maybe a few other household things that I think about to the point of distraction. If it doesn't have to happen today, it doesn't go on the list. I would focus heavily on my priority tasks and say no to a lot of other things and people... AKA other people's agendas.  I write them all as if they are already done. So instead of Do the Dishes, I write 'Dishes are done' and more often than not, someone else did them without asking - as if by magic. TA DA!!!! I highlight the tasks that are completed instead of crossing/checking them off. At the end of the day, if there is actually anything that didn't happen, it goes back to the dump and I sleep like a babe because I know its captured. Now when I look at everything that got high-lighted, it makes me feel pretty darn great!!!! I recently started adding an intention as to how I want to feel as well. Inside this journal...
