I hate grocery shopping. I loooooove to eat, but grocery shopping? 14 choices of toaster pastries laden with calories, while I force myself to reach for something healthy? Ick. Sometimes I convince my husband to go by himself, then jump up and down at my ingenuity.
Yesterday’s grocery excursion wasn’t that bad, though, and here’s why: I rearranged my to-do list.
Generally, I just choose to do the tasks on my to-do list in any order, but yesterday I rearranged them from LEAST to MOST desirable. It’s not rocket science, but it made all the difference in my mood. Instead of having enjoyed an hour shoe shopping and then trolling for carrots and sale-priced spinach, I rolled my cart through the aisles at a record pace to get to trying on scores of lovely leather boots.
I challenge you to do the same!
Order your to-do list from icky to awesome, then start with icky. Your days will only get better, and those tasks you always put off doing will actually get done.
