I learned about a great new tool when it comes to thinking about yourself and those around you. " The Not To Do List". I bet the majority of you out there has a to do list, weather it be a daily, weekly or even a life list. You probably have set plans into motion to concur these list or quite a few items on these list. But how many of us have the not to do list. You see when you think about it, this is actually a hard list to put together for a number of reasons. First how many of you find it hard to say the word "NO" when someone has asked you to do something at work. Your first thought is not wanting to disappoint this person even though you really have no time or desire to take part in the request, so you begrudgingly say yes and now your stuck. Or how hard is it for you to say "No" to something you have wanted to stop or give up doing, but you have gotten so used to it that you find it impossible to draw that line in the sand for yourself or someone else not to cross over. When you think about it now this is not a hard list to come up with, but what is hard is how are you going to enforce this list onto your life and those around you. Weather we like it or not we all really need to come up with this list for ourselves. Its not meant to hurt others. It is meant to set boundaries for physical, mental and emotional self. We all want to live a fuller and more giving life, but we can not do this if we don't set a standards for a personal "Not to do list". Seriously think about how this kind of list would help you create more time and positive energy to help you do the things you want to do for your family, yourself and the causes you believe in.
