Celebrating Things Yet To Be Done

I’ve got to admit, I am not a very big fan of lists, but I do make and use them. Particularly “to do” lists, so I don’t forget things I need to do. I did find it inspiring, however, when in Table for Two by Amor Towles’ Eve said, “A list is a celebration of things not yet done.” That was a great perspective. Really, we should see our to-do lists as being like a compass, helping us navigate through the sea of tasks.

Instead of focusing on what we haven’t done yet, we should see our list as a roadmap of exciting opportunities and experiences to look forward to. It can be a celebration of potential growth, learning, and new achievements waiting to be accomplished. Embracing the unknown can bring a sense of anticipation and motivation to accomplish new goals and dreams. Let’s celebrate all the great things we have yet to do.
