Organizing my mind, not just my house!

So I have on going side projects that I have started as well.  One is to organize not just my space (i.e. house)  but also my mind!  One way I have found that works well for me is to make a daily to do list.  I have tried in the past to have a sheet with daily chores.  I used to store this in a plastic sheet protector and then would check off each thing as I did it.  But lets face it no two days are ever alike!  I might get the floor swept one day but not the next because I have errands to run.  So when that wasn't checked off I would feel bad because I didn't get everything done.

Fast forward to now.  I have a list of 10 things that I want to try to get done today.  I star the most important and try hard to get those few done.  Whatever doesn't get done gets added to the next day or a day later in the week.  Yes it does take time and paper to do this, but I figure this is a small price to pay for the lose of guilt I feel each day.  It is also nice to look back on your day and see what you accomplished:)

You can also add to this page what is for dinner, what your schedule is for the day, or how many glasses of water you drink.
