E28 – To Should List

This episode of the pint-sized healing podcast looks at personal efficiency and how our obsession with to-do lists may cause us to feel a lot of guilt. There are so many things we feel we should do, and then when we fail to complete our unrealistic list of activities we feel horrible about ourselves. Today I share some ideas about how you can adjust your to-list, so you can feel a lot better about the daily grind. - When we can't stay on top of our overinflated to-do list, we can experience a lot of guilt - Cut big projects down into their individual tasks, so the list is more realistic - Make a list of feelings you would like to experience, and then connect those to activities that can cultivate those feelings - Include the things you really look forward to and are relaxing and fun to your to-do list This is the Positive Psychology course I mentioned: https://www.coursera.org/learn/positive-psychology
