The first thing about lists is that they’re never as long as we think they’re going to be. That way of thinking is merely a cop out from the work of having to take action once the list is complete.
But those who make lists are better off for it.
Lists of pros and cons. Lists of tasks. Lists of wish-fors. Lists of gratitude. Lists of to-dos. Lists of what you’re quitting.
There’s really no such thing as a bad list if the goal is to get to accountable action as quickly as possible.
And the added benefit of a list? The feeling of fulfillment that comes with crossing items off or the mere motion of acknowledgement of each line item.
