Making a list or several lists ...

I make lists and lists but I hardly get all ticked off by the end of the day.

I do the same, I keep a calendar where I immediately write down appointments. A small blackboard in the kitchen where I write the ingredients I notice are missing and I have to buy. I always make my grocery list and also a "to do" list for household chores.

I have a legal pad by me all the time. I write down discussion ideas, things I need to do, remember the kids to do, things that we need to get, etc. Lists are great.

I guess I manage to keep track of what I need every month because when I reach the shop, I go about purchasing things sequentially. So I start with brushing right? I need a brush and toothpaste, and one set for papa too. Then soaps, then tea, then sugar, then coffee, then oats, then semolina, pulses, blah blah...and finally, washing and cleaning soaps. It is difficult for me to forget anything. I am at the most guilty of buying more than what I need. I mean, I might need just one kg of sugar, but I might just end up stocking two or more. I do that because I am constantly fearing some riots. lol. Work, yes. I too like to do thing sequentially.

I make detailed lists. Often there are sub-lists on my lists. I wonder sometimes if I should just DO what I listed instead of wasting time listing them down in details.

I am not good to make lists. My concentration is very scattered. I am glad you are so organized kiran.

It is always better to prepare list of tasks to be done. Someone once told me - 'Palest of ink is sharper than any memory' (meaning thereby that if we have written something, that will last rather than our memory). Our mind cannot store all tasks required to be undertaken, therefore, it is better to note it down. While going for monthly grocery shopping, we make a list in advance so as not to forget anything. Else, I use my mobile phone calendar for executing a particular task e.g. payment of mobile phone bills/electricity bills/water bills. I sometimes set my mobile phone alarm so as to remind myself about a task.

Yes I seem to be making lists like you so I don't get distracted from my goal and what needs to be done. It's really a nice tool to keep us organized and focused. I use an app on my phone to make lists and I'm lovin' it.

That's a good idea for when you can't remember what you need to do. I have pretty good memory so I don't make list, I just do what needs to be done. This weekend I plan to catch up on cleaning since I was out of town last week. Hope you are able to finish your to do list.

I also make lists for different tasks and things to buy.

I also have a list on my refrigerator to keep track of what I need when I go to the store

Like you, I also always make different lists or its a possibility that i may forget something imp to be done

I often make lists of things I have to get done. In fact, I just sent an email to myself, both here and at work, about a document I have to draft tomorrow morning before my 11 AM meeting.

Lists are very useful. I also make them especially shopping lists. They help me not to pick just anything but those things that i need and hence i don't misuse the money. Todo lists also helps in time management as one avoids doing other things apart from what you have set to do. It therefore helps meet goals easily

I Love lists..i make them daily for shopping, things to do that day and then also keep my calendar nearby for future days.

I make list of groceries nost probably when some festivals are about to arrive.

I do sometimes, the problem is I often forget the lists at home when I go shopping

I make lists for everything too. Most of the times I do not follow them but I do make them, hahaha.

I've recently began making lists as well. I'd go crazy if I didn't! Especially since my memory is so horrible, I'd be sitting around all day trying to remember what I was supposed to be doing!

Lol! i owns a small write pad where all the important appointments and programmes. IKt help me to figure out the days and avoid any kind of confusion.
