TODAY: Chip, Chip, Chip away......
If you're anything like me, your list of "To Do" things seems to grow by the second. Every time you knock something off the list, it has grown by another 5 items. I've resolved myself to say "That's Okay, life is full of "to do's" anyway". I would then begin my "Chunk, Chunk, Chunking" at the list and would get several items chunked off, only to find myself having to go back and chip those chunks up later.
The moral of this is............ instead of "chunk, chunk, chunking"..........."chip, chip, chip", slow and steady, instead of trying to tackle the entire list, begin with one item and work your way through it. Don't try and finish everything all in one day or even a weekend (it won't happen). Give yourself a break and spread it out over a comfortable amount of time. Life is here for us to live. Don't stress, no worries, relax, and if you can, use the "chip, chip, chip" approach. You'll see that in no time at all, you'll have chipped your way through what seemed like a mountainous list, without having to go back, not even once, to redo anything.
Maintaining your "To Do" list is almost as important as maintaining your finances. The amount of strain we put on ourselves, talking or thinking about all the things we need to do, could drive anyone insane. Try not to allow the list to grow so big it seems unconquerable, but if it does get there (which is where I've found myself many times) "don't fret", start with the most important items and chip, chip, chip away. Before you know it, you'll find that keeping the list "in check" and doing the "to do's" is not only easy, but can also be rewarding and fun.
The only moment we're guaranteed is this one, make it great.......
all my best,
