I always need some assistance with my infamous to do list. I feel like I actually can get things done if I have one everyday. Do you rely on a to do list or are you fine without one?

One of my quirks with OCD is listing everything. I am obsessed with them. I have lists for what should be in the bathroom, laundry room and every other room in the house. Then i have lists for what I need to be in that room and what color it is. I have wish lists and to do lists and internet password lists. They go on and on and on. In reality, I don't think i could survive without them. I have to know what is what and where and why at all times.

It's funny because right when I feel complete, I feel the need to write another list! Woo-hoo!

There are days when a "to do" list comes in quite handy for me. It is so I don't get side tracked on something else during the day. I however notice that I can never do everything on the list so I keep it around throughout the week and get it done. I try not to stress if I can't accomplish everything on the "to do" list in one day, I know it will get done within the week.

I have found that I tend to be more productive when I have a to-do list to guide me. Having a list to go by tends to help me stay on task, and move easily from one thing to another.

I do not have to do lists. Mainly because I'm afraid I might actually figure out that I have alot to do. Mostly I have certain main tasks that I do on different days that stays pretty regular, like laundry and grocery shopping (I will make a list to do the grocery shopping).
Then I have the little errrands that pop up that I take care of on an as need basis. I just kind of get those as they come along. I have found most things are not in immediate need of doing and I kind of go with the flow.
Now, I may make one exception this year. It's something I have not done in the past. That is, I may actually make a list for Spring cleaning this year. In this case, I know there are alot of things that I need to do and a list may be necessary so I can organize my family to do their share as well.
