I love To Do lists and make them almost every single day. I normally make one first thing in the morning at work compiling the tasks I need to get completed, I make a grocery list of items I need to buy after work and with the move coming up I  have been making lists of items we need to pack, take to goodwill and buy. I can definitely say that on the days when I am being most productive, I am following my to do list. There are many benefits to making lists, it’s a very simple strategy that works great for just about anyone that gives it a shot.

 Benefits of To Do Lists

Creates order
A great way to organize your life and how to do the things you want to do. I normally put my items in order by when they need to be done high priority items first and things that can wait towards the bottom. A to do list not only creates order in your life but also gives you a strategy for getting things done in a timely fashion.

Prioritize
Making a list gives you a visual and better method to prioritize what needs to be done according to timelines and importance.

Accountability
My favorite part about creating a list is being able to cross off each item and being held accountable for getting this tasks completed. It’s a great feeling seeing all of your tasks being done.

Productivity
 Crossing off each item makes you feel like you have been super productive and it creates a sense of relief that you are staying organized and on track with your responsibilities.

Relieves Stress
It allows you to relax more when you see things are getting completed and your list is getting smaller and smaller throughout the day.
