I just responded to a discussion by explorations about to do lists. I was just wondering if to do list actually work for any one. Explorations says it is a way for her to remember things but does it also help to motivate you to get things done around the house? Just wondering if i should start using a to do list? Any suggestions?
Thanks

I think I actually get more done when I have a to do list vs the days i wake up and try to do things on my own. Growing up, my mom worked so she would leave a to do list everyday for me and my brother, ever since then I will make myself little notes of things to do and for some reason I do better those days at getting things done.

I do find that to-do lists help me to focus on what I need to get down. Therefore, I would say that yes they help motivatie me. They help keep me on track and know what I need to accomplish during the day. I have to admit that on the days I don't make a to-do list, I lack a sense of direction and motivation to get things done. So for me they really help.

I can't help responding to your discussion! :-)
Yes, to do lists help motivate me to do more. I love seeing things get checked off, even if it's one of the "smaller" tasks on my list. I think if you're not using a to do list and you're interested in starting to use this tool - you should give it a try! You might surprise yourself! :-)
