The To-Do List With A Single Item

Idea stolen from Stupid Motivational Tricks blog:

"This summer I'm trying something new: a to-do list with a single item. The principle is very simple. You have a "list" with one thing to do. When you've done it, you strike that item through and add a second item. All efforts go toward completing that item. Don't even think about the third thing, even if you know in the back of your mind what it is... The main point is to focus on one thing at a time instead of scattering one's attention and getting a fraction of many different tasks done without completing anything. This is especially important in times of stress."

TO-DO LIST:
1. Rewrite Song
2. Support Letters
3. Missionary Biography
4. Senior Banquet stuff
5. Meet up with people
6. I don't know yet.
