I spent the last several days reviewing about lists. I don't think I feel like I hate lists any more. I dislike how people can use list to control, exclude, punish, and push beyond reasonable limits but the list is a tool. I think I have blamed lists for the behavior of certain people because it is easier to blame the list instead of what was happening in my life. I think I can now use lists to help sort out what I want to do in my life without being a slave to the list. Nice to have it back into a healthier place in my life. I think I will mostly use spread sheets because I like all the little cells to keep track of dates completed. I think from this discussion, I really do appreciate the input and the web pages that shared my page, I learned that tools can be destructive or useful. An axe has been used in murders but I used it to chop firewood to warm our house. A list is a tool. A spreadsheet is a tool. Yup. I think I have a much better perspective than when I started.
