daily motivations to get things accomplished...?

dear macdingolinger , I also make a list everyday as a motivation to remind me of finishing the tasks. it is a perfect way for me to finish my work. if i don't write it for a day ,i may lose the direcion and don't know what to do next. it seems i am totally depending on it. and the first thing i get up to do is to make the list. in a word ,it's really useful.

Hi mac, that is a great suggestion. i do it when I have many things to be done. io also jot down all the things that needs to be looked into like repair work,paying bills or calling someone etc; etc; it really does help.....It does keep you on your toes and makes you feel happy and satisfied at the end of the day when all your tasks have been accomplished...All the best

I give myself rewards as I go. For example, if I am doing homework and I know I wont like it at all, I will work on it for 20-30 mins or up to a certain problem then take a 5 minute break to play on mylot or facebook. For things like mylot and my weight loss I give myself two weeks to reach a goal and work on it when I can. Both work for me and I haven't had a problem yet! :)

I do exactly what you do but not for the week I do it for the day. The most important things are on the top of the list. As I accomplish one task I cross it out. Like you it helps me to get alot of things done in one day. I hate to waste a day without accomplishing anything of importance because then it makes me get down about myself which will then lead to depression.

I do write a checklist for me to accomplish the things I wish to do on a particular day. Yeah, it really helps me to manage my time. However, there are times that I am unable to complete some tasks and I will forward it to the following day. Right now, what I have been doing to keep me motivated is to reflect all the things or areas that I wish to improve on a weekly basis. I will post it in my blog for my weekly report and see my progress.

For me Inspiration to get the things done is there priority and the importance they carry. There may be 4-5 things in the to do list BUT priority of the item will be on top. May be a personal work which is a must might take first place in the list however sometimes it may be more important to give priority to office work. I keep a track of do do things in my mind however I do record my plans and goals for the year. It may be a personal goal or professional goal to achieve and visit my goals in a periodic way. Again getting things done as per their priority and important gives energy to make aggressive plans/goals and achieve them.

hi macdingolinger, i do not keep writing things to be done,i donot have things to do mostly,all my works things are postponing to days and weeks,the fate is like that,but i keep a spiral note in my pocket,i will write some expenses and some important things telephone numbers etc etc,have a nice day

to be honest I don't really need any motivation I just take each day as it comes lol, even with my online business I work till I don't want to do anymore lol, but am in a good position as its my company so no one to tell me I have too lol, as for household chores I have the usual school ones to do as am a single dad, and the housework gets done as and when it needs to be done lol, usually an hour a day.

Yes, when dealing with important things in life. Motivations must be made to accomplish such. It will give you focus on the goals going to pursue. It will give you a clear mind how to deal and be successful in that field you will be about to take. For me, Discipline is best attitude. I do make planners list as my pattern for my plans to do. Gathering information is helpful to give you many optional ways to accomplish it. Conversation with other people will help you gain thoughts, comments and views. Optimistic approach in life is good for it will reject distractions and negative thought in you that inhibit your plans. Motivating your body and mind will let you concentrate and be determined with your task. With this kind of ways, given the right attitude and discipline, you will have a way toward accomplishing your plans in life. This will never mislead your plans toward accomplishing any for that matter.

A list of of some sort is a must for me. Whether it be mental or an actual written list, I always keep track of what needs to be done. Also, these lists can be long term or short term in nature. I have things that have to be done today or within the next couple of days. Those take top priority as well. Then I have several long term things that I work around that schedule. Also it helps to remind myself to get started as soon as possible, as the sooner I get done, then the sooner I will be able to kick back and relax.

I make a list too. I prioritize it then, usually just in my mind, but if it is something super important, it gets a star. Few years back some thought I was a perfectionist for doing that, but that is not necessarily a mark of a perfectionist. If I were, my handwriting would be so much neater. I started making a list after observing a non-Christian, a district manager over me, do that. I that case he made a list of things to do, and put an employee's name, as well as his own, next to each task. He assigned himself and me to go pull weeds. Got poison ivy from it!!!

Being cheerful helps!! Be grateful that we're alive for yet another day :)
