I Traded To-Do Lists for "Only-Do Lists," and Now I Can Finally Relax
Briefly

Cluttered, dirty spaces make me uncomfortable and stressed... strategies over the years so my need for a clean space to relax doesn't usurp the time I have to rest and recharge.
Never being able to check off my entire list can make me feel like I'm perpetually behind...hard for me to stop and recharge, important to avoid burnout.
I've had to give myself parameters, lines that let me know I've completed everything I need to do on any given day... once those items are done, I can take it easy.
Creating a subset of an ongoing to-do list as the 'only-do list' populated with tasks for the day. Once done, it's time to stop and relax.
