I use lists. I might even be guilty of having lists of my lists. Who knows? BUT, last night as I was thinking I might have too many lists something wonderful happened! I finished my music assignment for this week...and crossed it off this week's homework list! Do you have any idea the excitement that came with that one little line I drew? I crossed off my first finished assignment...and all of a sudden I don't feel buried in homework anymore. I feel accomplished! I feel like I can do this again. One line through one assignment and my head was telling me "You can do this! One step at a time!"
It's amazing the relief that comes with crossing things off lists. It's a way for me to look at something and actually see that I'm getting somewhere. If you don't do lists...you should try it. It can make all the difference. It's the only way to keep my chaos somewhat organized and I love it! I have this habit of taking on too much at once. Usually it happens without me noticing it and then WHAM I'm barely keeping my head above water. BUT, if I calm down, breathe deep and make some lists, all of a sudden I am in control again. Go me.
