Prompt: Beyond avoidance. What should you have done this year but didn't because you were too scared, worried, unsure, busy or otherwise deterred from doing? (Bonus: Will you do it?)

The obvious answer here is RESPOND TO THE PROMPTS AS THEY COME OUT...but I have been too busy...and also the prompts have helped me be more attentive to stuff and thus let these slide...The truth is that I don't like to do anything online on the weekend...I think too much internet is a bad thing and so I go offline SAT and SUN and so I start the week behind on the prompts which is not my favorite situation to be in :)  Those of you who know me know what a HUGE UNDERSTATEMENT that is...and a long time ago, back in the day when I was the most list-oriented person I knew (one of my friends once said to me, "don't forget to write 'make a list' on your list"), I realized that there were two things driving me insane:

1) not being able to get everything on my list done

and

2) not being able to do them in the most efficient order possible.

My first breakthrough here came when I abandoned efficiency as the be it and end all of my life plan.  So what if I have to double back to pick up the dry cleaning...whatever!  So that was a big relief.  But the most liberating of all was the day I realized that if something doesn't get done on my to-do list, maybe it doesn't need doing...OMG that was AMAZING!  Suddenly I no longer had to carry all these partially crossed-off lists that I would then recombine with my new list only to not be able to finish my list....again!  The dai;ly defeat plan of my life!!!

Now I even go list-free (sometimes).  SO will I do it?  Catch up on the posts?  Maybe.  GO back to list-lock, NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!
