The "Not to Do" List

- By Florence Feldman

Are you one of those people who has lots of ideas? Do you find yourself going from one thing to the other, unable to focus and really get much done? Have you been feeling bombarded by your mind that seems to produce new ideas at a speed that leaves you reeling?

Maybe what you need is a "Not to Do List."

I had a friend who was a published writer who just wasn't able to settle down to writing his next book. There were so many things that interested him and so many things he thought about doing that he was scattered "all over the place."

SO--he sat down and made a list of all the things he was not going to do. When he would begin to get drawn away by some idea or another, he would remember he was not to do that. This enabled him to focus on what he did want to do and helped him get the book written.

Try this--it might work for you.
