It&#8217;s better to do this task in our own comfortable schedule and all we need is focus to plan our next day which eventually helps us to be on the right track from the morning itself. Thus, there is no perfect time for writing our to-do list .<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ashni I.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Actually I think if you can find 5 minutes of time to write to do list , it actually can save you from morning chaos, and you would feel there is enough time to do this, since by writing it down you are planning the sequence to execute. So it saves time from being confused and then taking decision. Also listing tasks on clear mind will eliminate chances of missing out things, that again saves you from mental stress and chaos, thus the time taken to get out from it. Planning at night is also good thing, but writing to do in a fresh mind will give you a satisfaction of planning and executing from morning itself -A sense of small success. I am not sure whether you can connect with this, but this is helping me.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moshe C.
