Been into creating lists and been pretty vocal about it on the blog, so I have been thinking a lot about their purpose lately. See if asked I often say I dislike them, but I continue to use them. Thus I am conflicted, are they good or are they bad?
Con Pro
Lack of flexibility OrganizationRemember what you need to do Remember what you need to do
Guilt Motivation
This is all I could come up with, but I have the feeling there are more. See evaluation of a tool is essential in understanding it's importance. Are lists extremely valuable or only mildly helpful. One could say if you don't know what to do, how are you going to do it? Other would say you should do more and you wouldn't have to worry about remembering?
What pro's/con's can you think of?

ps. as much as I dislike lists I have a terrible memory soooo until I find a substitute the list stays.
I find lists very helpful to remember the important things I want to do. Without them I would end up wasting a lot of time. Still, I have learned not to feel guilty when I just don't feel like doing something that day.
ReplyDeleteTrue, it is the pressure I feel to fulfill the list, personally, that becomes a problem.
