For when we really can’t deal with the original plan. Are you familiar with those days when you are up todo, but somehow cannot get to the original plan? It can be a case of no inspiration or just a change of circumstances. It happens to me at times, and it is somewhat challenging to go back to the drawing board, and we can get spaced out. This is when the backup list comes handy.

If you fully grasp it, your TODO Life will change, seriously :) I want to share with you in this post a discovery that I had many years ago, one that changed my relationships with my todo list. It can change yours too.

There is this saying that the one who puts the alarm clock at night is not the one that wakes up. And it is so true, also in regards to what we plan for tomorrow. When the new day starts, we may be in a different mood than what we felt yesterday, there may be all kinds of things that distract us, some unexpected demands, and needs. If we start our day by investing in deciding how to make it beautiful and efficient, our inner resources may be finished and/or that there is no time to do anything.

If your lists are lost again and again and/or becoming "ugly" too often, this post is for you* *Mainly for those who use hard copy The problem Lists have the tendency to go under, hide, or to become unappealing. But actually, they do enjoy fulfilling their destiny and be seen :) They are born to help us!

What do you feel when you say 'todo list'? I bet you wouldn't say 'I feel inspired and motivated.' You may feel indifferent, but you may feel resistant, frustrated, tired. The way we feel when we say this name is undoubtedly connected to our relationship with it; and our relationships with these lists are related to how much it is easy or difficult for us to lead the life we want.

Maybe you know this feeling – like being in an endless chase after ‘completing lists’ and ‘erasing tasks from your productivity apps.’ It doesn’t have to be like that. There are other ways todo. Yet, changing it is a process. Personally, I am still in the midst of this process of re-defining my relationships with my to-dos; but it is a beautiful journey. This series will offer ways to befriend our todo lists. I have bountiful knowledge to share about to-do lists; some of it is practical; some of a reflective nature, offering a different angle of perception on the subject. The ideas I will share with you were tested countless times on myself and with others;
