The Happiness of Accomplishment

Who else out there makes the dreaded 'to-do' list? It's a necessity, and often the only motivation I have to knock some chores off.

Here's my trick: add two or three things that you know won't be so terrible. Crossing off a task is the best feeling.

Und was hab ich heute gemacht? My German speaking final is all done, I did not put it off. Beginning the day well, I finished mowing the lawn, which has taken a couple of days. Next to be done is the poetry project which I so dread. The happiness in knowing how relieved I will be after this last project is finished is all that I need to keep myself crossing tasks off my little to-do. ~Beth
