?I'm running behind the writing schedule today! Ever find yourself expecting a quick errand to take an hour but it somehow devours your entire day? Well, that was my day. I've been hustling to check off all those items on my ambitious to be done by End Year to-do list. How's yours coming along? Finished? Halfway there? Or maybe you're currently staring at this message with a bewildered look, thinking, "To-do list... where did it disappear to?" We've all been there!
Amid all these tasks, I started contemplating the idea of having a "NOT TO DO" list. Do you have one? What's on it? Or perhaps, what have you pledged to eliminate rather than add to your ever-growing list?
So here's an idea: Let's collaboratively create a "NOT TO DO" list for the days ahead. Share an item with me through WhatsApp, LinkedIn, or email—whatever suits you. It could be loads of fun! The sentence could go like this: "I promise to stop xxxxx," and if you're feeling inspired, add, "I promise to stop xxxx and start xxxxx." Looking forward to building this list together!
I will start us off:
1)????? I promise to stop overcommitting myself. I will say NO more often!
Waiting for yours....
