Forget 'to do' lists ... try 'I did' ones

Posted on Aug 15th 2007 10:07AM by Martha Edwards
Unfinished 'to do' lists litter my desk, my purse and my bedroom. My lists are filled with the immediate -- bills, Emails, work-related items -- and the far-off -- finally cleaning out the storage closet, getting my CDs and pictures in order. It's gotten to a point where it seems like life is really just one big 'to do' list that will never be finished. Do you ever feel that way?

When life seems hopefully unfinished, Fitsugar has a great suggestion -- instead of 'to do' lists, boost your spirits with an 'I did' list. Mark down all the things you've done today, instead of what you have yet to do, and I bet you'll feel a lot more satisfied with yourself than you will looking at all the things you haven't been able to get to yet.

But in my case, I'm still going to hang on to the 'to do' lists too -- otherwise, how will I stay organized?
