I would have to agree with several of the things you mentioned too....I need to stop being consumed by things I can't control, stop fretting about the economy and stop making lists!

I don't have any new year's resolutions, but now you've inspired me to write my own not-to-do list. Excellent list!

There are two which specifically I'm gonna try and change this year as well, I will stop making to-do list that never get done. and decreasing my carbon footprint I'm so bad at making these extravagent and impossible to do lists that end up really frustrating me than helping me accomplish anything. I need to tone it down and get realistic with my to do lists! Those are some great resolutions for the upcoming year. There are two which specifically I’m gonna try and change this year as well,

I will stop making to-do list that never get done.

and decreasing my carbon footprint

I’m so bad at making these extravagent and impossible to do lists that end up really frustrating me than helping me accomplish anything. I need to tone it down and get realistic with my to do lists!

The one "not-to-do" on my list would definitely be getting overwhelmed by my to-do list. I tend to bite off more than I can chew and then get frustrated. What I am doing now is teaching myself some to-do list discipline going into 2009. First day I put one most important item on my list. If I achieve that, the next day I put two most important items and it will increase until per day as long as i achieve what is on my to do list. If I fail one day, on the next day I decrease my to do list for that day by one. In other words, my reward for completion of tasks is one more added task for the next day. My punishment would be to remove one for the next day. Give it a try. It makes you focus on what matters most in your life. But admittedly, a bit restrictive early on. Hi, twitter buddy!!

I have a much better chance of keeping to a NOT to do list than with the former TO DO ones where I then beat myself up for not getting it all done! jantallent on twitter and one of your followers Happy 2009 to both of us!

Let's all freak out and stress less and live in the moment. Thanks for the reminder. Excellent list of what we should all stop doing to have a healthier and happier 2009.
