When we are constantly thinking ahead of everything that we have to do and hoping that we don't forget anything, our mind becomes clogged up and excess things cause stress.

Eight Reasons To Make A List

1. Can help you take control of your time. You know how much time something will take and you can plan accordingly.

2. Gives a one-glance look at everything you want to accomplish. You won't forget things if it is on your list, one glance lets you know everything that there is to do.

3. Helps to eliminate mind-clutter by keeping track of odds and ends. Once it is written down, forget it, just follow your list, this eliminates stress ?forgetting the important stuff?.

4. Improves your memory by writing everything down. Everyone knows that when you write something down you remember it longer. This improves your handwriting and helps you remember things longer.

5. Get's rid of mental stress by emptying your brain of trivial items. This gives the brain time to relax, thus, eliminating stress and mental fatique.

6. Helps you to schedule time for breaks and relaxation. Yes, you do deserve breaks during the day but, you need to schedule, this just like you do your work. It's not against the law to relax; it will boost your energy level and

give you time to recharge.

7. Helps you to focus on the important things. Get the most important things done first; they will always be at the top of your list because they bother you the most.

8. Satisfaction of crossing things off your list? This will give you a total feeling of accomplishment. When you look at everything that you managed to accomplish in an hour, a half day, a full day; you will be amazed at how good you are. This will make you wonder why you haven't done this sooner and will

make you want to continue through the whole house.

Keep a small notebook or memo book in your purse or pocket, as you think of things that you want to get done, add them to your list. You can subdivide this list later, such as; home, work, maintenance, appointments etc.

It will free up space in your mind so that you can concentrate on the 'job at hand'. You can give these things your full attention without the stress of worrying that you will forget something.
