Todo lists...
Of course it resonates. You describe the errors I do.
I keep moving from to-do-list, to agenda, to notes, and back again.
You say it is not about a tool or a process,
but rather about discipline.
Right!
Discipline may be connected to habits.
From 8:00 to 8:30 I (should) review my to-do-list
Unfortunately, our lives are full of perturbations
which invalidate our habits.
Even though it is not about tools,
I spent years looking for the right tool:
- pen & paper
- postit
- electronic postit
- note-pads, paper or electronic
- countless PC & phone applications
Eventually I settled on Emacs Org Mode.
It was a refreshment when I discovered it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Note to my future self: enhance my to-do-list
