One of the most common and simple ways of organizing life are lists. We are so used to them that few people think about how this is a great invention of mankind. In this article, we will talk about what it is and what lists it is worth keeping to every reasonable person.
If I were asked to describe what lists are and what value they have in order to achieve their goals, I would compare them with a ladder. All our goals are tops of different heights and complexity. You can climb up the steep slopes, sliding on the steep slopes and stumbling over unexpected obstacles. And you can safely climb the ladder-list, confidently moving from one step-task to another.
The lists allow us to divide complex cases into many small ones, track progress and evaluate efforts. They do not let us forget what is needed and help us organize our day correctly. Lists surround us everywhere and can be useful literally in any area.
Creative ideas
Creativity is a spontaneous process; it is rather difficult to drive it into the framework of standards. Therefore, the creation of lists of valuable ideas, original finds, unusual thoughts will come to your aid at the moment when absolutely nothing original climbs into your head, but you need to create.
Books to read
If, after reading the next book, you suffer each time choosing the next one, then it’s time to have a special list for reading. In it, you will enter every book that your friends advised you to read about in our blog or just saw it at a neighbor's metro station. By the way, with the help of this list, you can quickly estimate the number of reading publications and even recall the most useful thoughts from them.
Interesting events
The worst thing is when you decide to make a list of interesting places, impressions, and situations that occurred in your life, and suddenly realized that you have absolutely nothing to fill it with. An excellent reason to reconsider your attitude towards life and start purposefully filling it with interesting pages.
Lists of current tasks
Yes, it's boring and banal, but we could not miss this kind of lists. They will help you better cope with your daily routine, have time for everything and never be late. In addition, the contemplation of the column neatly deleted tasks delivers just unearthly pleasure at the end of a difficult day.
List of movies to watch.
All the same, as about books. There are so many films now being released that spending time on all sorts of nonsense is an unaffordable luxury. A well-designed list of movies will protect you from a random selection and allow you to see exactly the movie that meets your interests.
Wishlist
The crisis of desires is not a joke. If at one point you felt universal boredom and realized that you did not want anything, then this is it. You need to love, cherish and grow your desires. And in order to grow better, you need to write them on a special list, which must be at least 101 points.
Anti-list
Everyone is used to the fact that you need to write down the tasks you have to complete in the to-do list. But in some situations, it will be much more useful to have a list of tasks that can never be done. Drink. Take up cigarettes again. To blunt the tv. To lie Spent the day without completing a single item from this blacklist, which means you are moving in the right direction.

STOPI'm so used to lists that sometimes I consider myself a "listman." Lists are a way of organizing your life. With them you keep control of things to do and prioritise tasks and errands. It's a feature of a well-organized person. But careful don't let them overwhelm you because they will turn into a nightmare...
