My intentional focus this week includes prioritizing tasks with a "love list" not a "to do list". The implications of this shift in mindset will help me remember that I get to do tasks because I am blessed to have the opportunity to do them, rather than having to do the item simply to get it done.
A long "to do list" can make my days feel daunting. It can bring on feelings of being overwhelmed, frustrated, and stressed. The long lists can include so many items that I get lost in the shuffle of doing what needs to get done and focus less on the importance of the task.
This is why I challenge you to change your mindset around the list of items that you have to do in your life. Instead of making a "to do list", make a "love list". When you change your mindset around why you are doing the tasks, you also alter your desire to do each item.
I have an app that sends me positive messages throughout the day. Today's message was: "Sometimes you are so focused on the future that you don't realize you're in the middle of what you used to hope for."
When I am in the middle of a rough season in life, I have the tendency to focus on the future I am wishing for and forget how far I have come. Friends, there is so much beauty in the importance of focusing on where we currently are in our lives. So let us not forget that we are right where we need to be, doing the "love lists" that we are set to do.
Today, I urge you to be amazed at how far you have come. I hope that you find peace in the present moments, and that you look forward to your amazing future ahead of you. Put on your high heels and do each item on your "love list", filling your days with blessings and pride!
