Lists

.
In our everyday lives there can be many lists.
A list for grocery shopping. A ‘to-do list’. A wish-list that may have your wishes and desires on it. And the list that has gained in popularity over the past years: ‘the bucket list’, things you still want to do or experience before you ‘kick the bucket’.

In the energy of today a list can be a great tool to keep track.
With the ever higher vibration of the energies around us, time seems to be speeding up as well. On top of that we seem to take on more and more things we want or need to do in a day. And between being increasingly busy and time running through our fingers ~ chances are that every once in a while there are things that fall through the cracks. Things that ‘drop off the list’...
Being afraid to let this happen tends to add to the stress that may already be in our lives ~ and yes, can make that chance of ‘forgetting something we really should have done today’ bigger.

And that is where a list comes in.
It can be a list on a note pad, on a computer or pad ~ or even on a white board. Writing down the things you want to do, need to get, or shouldn’t forget ~ even the simple act of writing it down will help you remember. On top of that, the fact that whatever it is you need to remember is no longer just in your head; it is now also written down in a place where you can retrieve it. So even if you would forget something that is on the list one day; you can still do it the next day. It may have escaped your mind, yet it never dropped off the list...

Then there is another, for most people very satisfying aspect of writing things down on a list: once you have done whatever it is, you can scratch it off your list. It is done! Even if you wouldn’t do anything else that day, this is something you have accomplished!

A totally different and lesser known type of list that can help you start the day with a clear mind is not really a list in the true sense of the word...
It is a list, or ‘writing’ you do right as you wake up, yet before you actually get up. If you would write whatever comes to mind ~ whether it makes sense or not, that doesn’t matter ~ for about ten minutes before actually getting out of bed; you’d be surprised how much ‘stuff’ you really have no need for remembering you can release that way!
And doing that it reduces stress and leaves all your ‘brain power’ to remember the things that are truly important to you...
