To- Do Lists

The morning always begins with a cup of coffee  TEA and a to-do list.
I'm such a fan of the to-do list - nothing quite like the satisfaction of crossing things off! But when life gets so busy, like the last 2 weeks  years in particular, and I don’t get everything done I'd set out to do, I simply move it to the next day. I figure it’s going to eventually get that juicy big cross through it as DONE!

To do lists are very helpful when you are becoming overwhelmed with the amount of work you have to do.  Being able to prioritize them and know what needs to have immediate attention or what you can leave until later will allow you to stay focused, more organized and more reliable.

And stress …. let me just say that when you prioritize more intelligently, you become more productive and are able to complete all of your tasks on schedule AND you will be able to experience less stress!

Who doesn’t need less stress?  I'm all for that~

Take a look at http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-To-Do-List for some helpful tips on making TO DO Lists.
