5 Things your To-Do list will never tell you

To do lists are excellent. We all love a good list. We all love checking things off a list. We all love seeing all of the things we have achieved. To do lists are excellent at telling you the different steps you need to take to achieve something, complete a project or even keep the right food in the cupboard to feed your family. They will tell you what tasks need to be completed on what days in order to keep everything ticking over. But, every to do list has its limit. There are 5 things your To-Do list will never tell you.

1. It won’t tell you what is important

BUT WAIT! My app has 4 different flags for priority! MY app has custom fields and I can allocate importance to my tasks based on multiple different factors. Mine lets me sort and filter my lists and views so I can decide what IS important, filter out everything else and truly focus on what matters.

I hear you.

But think about your last week. What were the most important things you did? Were they on your to-do list?

Maybe you comforted one of your children who had a bad dream? You took a call from a friend who lost their job or a family member passed away? Perhaps a colleague who was massively stretched and stressed needed some help and you dropped everything to assist?
