While I don't particularly like rigid routines, I do like checklists. That way, I know what needs to be done and I can fit tasks in depending on how my day flows. Some days it is easier than others and I am super motivated. On other days, it is more of a struggle due to over commitments. The thing about a checklist is that the tasks are there … they don't fall through the cracks and you can get to it anytime that works for you. Just remember to prioritize and simplify based on your choices of how you want to feel. Let go of things that you are "supposed to do." Do only what you absolutely must do based on how you want to feel. When you know it is your choice you feel less overwhelmed because you can always change what you choose.

What are some things you can give up or limit? Computer time? Facebook? Twitter? TV? Check e-mails only certain times of the day?
Where can you fit in exercise and meditation time? Meal planning? It is your choice depending on how you want to feel ...
