Yesterday I got everything done except my stretch goals. Not surprising. Today's list: 3 hours of paid work groceries some cooking (I really...

Pretty late in the day - 2 pm - but hoping to get a few things done. This next week is going to be challenging because it's going to be hot and...

Today's list: Take dogs to the park Home Depot shopping for weekend project Vacuum Wash glass patio doors - dog drool all over them!

I guess I do have some daily routines. Mornings I wake up early and open up the whole house to let in the fresh cool air and let the dogs out. Then...

I'm really trying to motivate myself to tackle my office and garage and not having much luck. I'd like to join in here and see if this helps. I...

Yesterday ended up being a mostly rest day. After finishing my paid work, I went to lunch with a friend and afterwards took a nice long nap. I...

Congratulations!!! :cool: I'm so happy for you. What an awesome feeling it will be to turn in your notice. And then you get to start on a fresh...

What finally got me going yesterday was making a phone call to schedule a routine appointment. For whatever reason, that loosened up the brain and I...

The shorter list did not work well for me. I wasn't getting anything done so I added a bunch of stuff and that mobilized me into action and I got...

I didn't realize you had an interview yesterday. Best of luck!!!

I'm trying to decide if it would be easier for me to organize the extra stuff and just make space for it and keep it, or get rid of it. Overall my...

Zoe - not sure what the bolded part meant. Can you clarify? I don't want to respond thinking it means one thing and it actually means something...

ZG - I'm so sorry you are going through this. For me, it's hard mentally to let go of stressful stuff even when I know, logically, that I should or...

Well, I did nothing on my weekend list, so it seems my all-or-nothing approach is going to take longer to change than 1 day. :) But I did have a...

Thanks for the excellent discussion, everyone. I've decided that I will continue to avoid social media. I don't count this site, even though it...

Question for those of you who have no problem setting boundaries or resisting the addictive aspects of social media: Do you suffer from any mental...

Of course, not everyone is going to have a problem, just like not everyone becomes an alcoholic or drug addict. In high school I tried alcohol,...

What keeps running through my mind is that in social media, we are the product that is being sold. When you look at how sophisticated and effective...

Thanks for the welcome rosarugosa and danna!

I finished my whole list (minus the office which will be it's own project) by 6:30 and then had the rest of the evening to relax. I had planned no...

rosa - thank you! :) You definitely have a harder task ahead of you. My condolences to you. And I'm glad someone else gives themselves a boost of...

bae - thank you for sharing that. It's exactly what I'm afraid of. I suffer from anxiety and depression and it just seems like the way social media...

As an exercise in alternative thinking, I thought I'd use Catherine's method to create today's list and I came up with one; and then I looked at why...

Hi nswef - don't get me started with all those passwords/user names/pins, etc! We've been thinking of using one of those software programs that keep...

Catherine - ideally, focusing on the 3 most important things in a day would be my goal too. The problem I run into is that when I get into a lazy...

I'm mentally preparing myself for a pretty big purge and I know it's going to be hard because I'm down to all the stuff that is still in excellent...

Well, I got "shockingly saintly" which in real life translates to "unfortunate doormat" so my goal would be to elevate my dark side to be more...
