The joy of lists
Sometimes I like to sit in and just let my mind wander and practice my handwriting.
Sometimes I don’t want to think at all, and can’t even think of anything to do with my dog.
Luckily, I have found the perfect way to combine these two moods: list making!
Making a list of things is a perfect activity to calm down my brain ( I have already spoken about braindumps, this is kind of the same thing). And I get something useful to write at the same time.
And best of all: the next time I feel the other way – brain not turned on at all but want to do something – I have my list and can choose from a whole bunch of things!
This list goes with my activity tracker. As I read it today, I can add more things. It’s that kind of day. Yesterday, I couldn’t think of a single thing to do, and got out my list and chose to work on sit pretty during the commercial breaks in my TV-show. Perfect! This morning before my brain woke up, I went for a walk with the dogs. I glanced at my list as I walked by, saw “find it”, and put three toys in my pocket. And we did some find it in the tall grass!
What would you like a list of? Or do you already have one you find extra useful? Share! 🙂
