Someday/Maybe = Unlikely/Never? 3 Tips to Fix and Avoid This! [Getting Things Done]
I simply love the concept of a Someday/Maybe list. It is useful, it is simple and it is powerful. At least, it can be if used properly!
A couple of weeks ago, during one of my weekly review sessions, I discovered that I had gradually started to (ab)use my Someday/Maybe list (again) as a dumping ground and graveyard for a lot of unwanted or impossible “projects”, or even for pieces of information that should be stored in my reference system.
I realized that my Someday/Maybe list, which should be a source of inspiration for future projects, was slowly becoming an Unlikely/Never list, which made me feel uncomfortable every time I looked at it!
I have managed to get my Someday/Maybe list back under control and use it the way it was meant to be. Let me share 3 tips with you on how to clean up your Someday/Maybe list and also on how to prevent it from becoming a Unlikely/Never list (again).
