What’s on YOUR “Could Do” List

You know what you have to do. It’s written on your “to do” list and waiting to be checked off as soon as you do what you have to.

But what’s on your “could do” list?

You used to have a wonderful “could do” list and carried  it everywhere you went when you were a kid. Psychologists would call it an imagination, but for you it was a constant reminder that the future was wide open and the world was waiting to be explored.

Somewhere along the way to the middle, you may have allowed your dreams to be replaced with tasks. Your “could do” list became your “to do” list.

Take out a piece of paper and make a “could do” list. Tape it to your computer monitor, so it’s always on your mind (but don’t forget about your “to do” list).

Reintroduce yourself to your imagination. It may have been a while since you hung out together, but I think you’ll find it’s still up for anything.
