Either way, I want tickets to the red-carpet premiere, when it happens! :) Mea culpa, Corey, I’ve edited your intro to say you want to solo with that trumpet, not (necessarily?) to write the score.

I like trumpet better. @marina Oh, haha. Knowing me, I'd just use two different ones anyways. I do enjoy colored pieces of paper. But yeah, keeping all of the things you need to do in one place makes total sense. @Kayellen You're welcome. :) @Scramblejam Thanks. :) And if I combine hot dinners and hot lunches, do I beat you out? What If I enjoy eating salads? Then those statistics don't work. Only joking. I dunno that I could track that many forms of lists. I just kinda group and go. (should follow my own advice more, haha) @Jamie I actually add things like "shower" and "brush teeth" too. I should be taking some downtime, I'm just trying to save something fun to do for tomorrow. @cardiogirl

I'm glad you added it to the list, Corey! My downtime generally consists of lounging at the cafe, though I seem to have forgotten that it's supposed to be downtime of late. Guess this is a good reminder! :) Downtime is so important. I’m glad you added it to the list, Corey!

I am a huge lover of To-do Lists, and have had more iterations of my standard list format than you've had hot dinners... I am an evangelist of the weekly To-do list, though I do tend to go a bit Stephen Covey and make sure I have my Q2 tasks separated out. Currently, items 1-7 on my To-do list are to start writing on my blog again! SJ Great post Corey!

I just meant that it's important to capture personal projects as well as business ones. If you don't have an office job that shuts off at 5pm (aka you don't bring work home), then keeping your business + personal tasks in one place makes the most sense.

However, I did play cornet in high school -- most people mistake the cornet for a trumpet. So we are more like-minded. Fun! I *should* tell myself I am completely and utterly awesome, but I don’t.

But either reality would make me tons of cash and be awesome. @cardiogirl If you also take 10 minutes out of your day to tell yourself that you're 'completely and utterly awesome' then yep, we're of one mind. Do you play trumpet? Also, I used to take my notes in multi-colors, but it takes too long to write. @Marina Nice. I should probably invest some time into creating a master to-do list one of these days. I like the idea of picking 10 things to do. I'd probably pick 7, just because I like 7. I like your idea of separate lists for work and personal, though. I intermingle, because I don't actually have an 'office job.' @Dish Glad you liked it! @Jen
