Only One Day
One Day at a Time
You don't have to work out your whole life today.
Where are you sitting today?
There isn't one right answer. Choose where you are today.
You only need to get through today.
What would make today a little easier?
This isn't a productivity list. Choose what would help you take care of yourself today.
Today is enough.
You do not need to solve tomorrow today. You do not need to work out next week. You do not need to know how everything turns out.
Let's get it out of your head.
Put down everything that's taking up space. You don't need to solve it yet.
Where does each thing belong?
☀️ TODAY
I can or need to do something about this today.
NOT TODAY
It matters, but I don't need to deal with it today.
NOT IN MY CONTROL
There isn't anything I can action here today.
You don't need to carry everything today.
You've separated what needs your attention from what can wait and what isn't yours to control.
Today
Not Today
Not in My Control
Build today's to-do list.
Add the tasks you want to do today. If a task has smaller steps, you can add them too.
Today
What you want to get done today.
Parking Lot
Things you don't want to forget, but don't need to deal with today.
One task at a time.
Today
Parking Lot
You don't need to think about these today.
Sometimes the whole picture feels too big.
You don't have to get there all at once.
Start with one piece.
It's an elephant.
Sometimes small steps really do get you there.
Whether today meant simply getting through the day, working out what needed your attention, or getting things done...
You didn't have to do everything at once.
