How do you write to-do lists every day and do those things?

I write down EVERYTHING that I want to get done. Knowing there isn’t enough hours in the day to do it all, I go back through it, prioritizing the top 10. I always include my bible study and gym on there because that’s time of growth and health for me. So those go at the top of my list and priority. I also always include one chore around the house. Then the rest fall into line. If I know some of my items are going to take me a long time, my todo list may only have 8 items one day but 15 the next. Always include your most important habits into your todo list to plan your time for the day accordingly.

I write my to-do list each morning on my phone and in my notebook. I write down absolutely everything that needs doing. Then I decide which ones absolutely must be done today, and do those first. Then if I have time or can be bothered doing any of the others, I will. I don't beat myself up if I dont manage to do them though. The next morning I will include the ones I missed on my new to-do list.

I have several to-do lists.I don't do everything on them. A to-do list is suppose to help you, if it's a cause of stress, first to-do should be to get rid of this to-do list.
Stress isn't a good thing if it's making you feel bad.
Try whittling down your to-do s' into goals/tasks. Little goals, little tasks and remember the tasks are for better life.

The key not actually doing the things on the list is to make sure it is short enough. I tend to make an aspirational to do list and then a must-do list and only hold myself to the latter

I write my ToDos, A/B/C all tasks and then, at least 6 times a week, use the list as a guide for my day. Some days there is just too much on there, or there are too many interruptions, too many other things I feel I can’t say « no » to, and I don’t manage to handle everything. On good days, when I am well rested, I try to go through my To Do mechanically, just focusing on and doing one item at a time, and barring it when it’s done. Those are the best days, and give a real sense of accomplishment. We’re all learning. Good luck on your journey.

I have a notebook for this reason. So every morning (or before sleep on the previous day) I write my to-do list and label hardest tasks with A, B, C letter.

With regards to writing: I don’t make mine too long. As for completing: I try to, but for tasks I did not rank as most important life can come in the way. Although it is difficult, I try to accept this: I do want to have the time to call my family, or spend a bit of extra fun time with my loved ones.

My to do list is my guiding path through my day, not a jail.
