To Do List

I am a big believer in a "To Do List" and Post-it-notes. This would coincide with the Clutter theory also. You can have various "To Do Lists", such as Today, short term (for the week) and long term (for the month/year). Having the list and crossing chores off as you go makes you feel 3 things:

• Gives you a direction
• Keeps you organized for the day
• "Happy" when accomplished tasked are all crossed off the list.

Keep them posted where you can see them. Carry them in your car or purse. Try to do something at least once a week off of your short or long term list, then those list will decrease and again the Happiness theory sets in again.

Post-it-notes are great also, like in the laundry room to remind you to wash you dryer lint trap once a month and change your furnace filters every 3 months. Put them on the mirror to remind you to take your pills or just to let the one you love know how much you care about them. Again, Happiness.

The point here is this: You might just find out how much freer er you feel about your accomplishments and you'll have more time for FUN stuff.
