Why Does it Matter to Have a To-Not-Do List!
<div class="text-justify"> 

Hello, Steemians!

Successful people often urge beginners to create to-do lists and schedule their days to reach maximum efficiency and peak productivity.

But today, I am going to propose something different. Something that we all desperately need, but can’t understand just how much we need it.

As much as it is important to do some things in order to achieve your dreams, it is also important to not do some things and develop a sense of self-restraint.

This is what I would like to call a ‘To-not-do’ list!

<div class="text-justify">

Indulgence is a weakness that we all struggle with in our lifetime. We tend to have desires and cravings that may not be in our own best interest.

Sometimes, the urge to indulge an immediate pleasure overwhelms the idea of getting some work done for a higher purpose.

This weakness is inevitable. Now, I do believe that if we work on ourselves, we can overcome such urges and desires.

But my main point is this: having a ‘not-to-do’ list is just as important as having a schedule for things you will have to do!

<div class="text-justify">

After all, nobody understands your own urges and impulses better than you.

You have some tendencies or habits that are harmful when it comes to your mindset and productivity on a daily basis.

After so many years, you have recognized most of these habits.

Here is where it gets challenging: You have to work up the courage to make a not-to-do list and write everything that you should avoid in order to become the person you were meant to be.

Some people call this torture or oppression, but it is actually a process of self-betterment to achieve your goals and stop time from going to waste.

</center> <a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/etsVKbvxhCc">img src</a>
<div class="text-justify">

Nobody can know our characteristic pitfalls better than us. To avoid these pitfalls is a great challenge that only a few people can rise up to!

If making a to-do list can actually help with doing the things we want to do, then creating a not-to-do list can compel us to leave our bad habits behind and develop our character towards a better future.

The real argument is this:

If you need to do particular things to achieve your goals, then you equally need to not do particular things.

Break out of the chains of your bad habits by sitting down and making this list today!
 
A BIG HUG!!!

============================================================

I have been working very hard on this blog since the beginning.

I am already grateful to see you giving upvotes to each other and you can see this with the fact that many already have 8, 9, 10 upvotes. But I'm sure that with the effort of all of us we will see a community with, more and more upvotes each others and for that everyone should get engaged so we can make it come true. I believe and we can! Resteem...

***Remember Community: Please, if you commented and upvote on a new post I did, please always go back to the previous one because if someone in the community commented lastly because of time zone differences it will be without your upvote and that would not be fair.

You will receive my upvote in all material and brief comments I will do this in all the posts I am following very closely and I can see what the people who are generous and contribute to this legacy that I am trying to build with all of you can become reality in a short time.

AND

First of all, I would like to thank all of you, who are the most active and proactive in this community, showing your generosity and always with meaningful comments. From now on I will always make a list of these incredible people who have helped to expand our goal of growing ever more.

Why bother writing a "what not to do" list???? 
Just stop kissing people's ass, and be your own man.

_I stay with this since I have lived it in my own flesh. English costs me and to be able to answer by here now I must read do a good job to dedicate time. Thank you for teaching the things we must not do in order to succeed. I am convinced that postponing things is one of them. That's right today I started to respond because this medium helped me a lot in uploading my sp I'm very happy with @nothus. I'm going to keep pace to continue learning and benefit from these publications by learning and sharing. Thanks @chbartist_.

I think this is definitely an under-thought initiative. It's hard to find the time for self growth because we are busy grinding away in a system that brainwashed into thinking you always have to grind to be successful. If anything- I would say it's the opposite. Take the time to understand yourself, and run self experiences to find what your biases are- and most importantly, what are your unhealthy defense mechanisms. For example- I have recently learned how my self sabotage behavior and cycles stem from a past in my early child hood when my mother was depressed and unable to give me what I needed emotionally. I then built up a defense mechanism of unworthiness and that has manifested in so many large areas of my life. I would never have understood this if I didn't take the time to read books and be honest and vulnerable with myself. Cheers

Luckily I had some partners that I take as an example to what not to do in life... 😅

But yeah.. I'll take a proper list and put it on paper.

Greetings and have a great day.

We often take a similar approach to determine what to (1) start, (2) continue, and (3) stop doing.  Stopping to do things that are a waste of time or should be delegated are often more important that the tasks yet to do!

I love the "not-to-do" list. It does take a lot of bravery to refrain from the instant pleasures of life to push through the more unpleasant parts of a job you're trying to get done! Thanks for the motivation!

_Sometimes, the urge to indulge an immediate pleasure overwhelms the idea of getting some work done for a higher purpose._

_This weakness is inevitable. Now, I do believe that if we work on ourselves, we can overcome such urges and desires._

_But my main point is this: having a ‘not-to-do’ list is just as important as having a schedule for things you will have to do._

These are **great** ideas but I'd challenge you to take a step further. I think the reason that this to-not-do list is so powerful is in writing. as you mentioned in the article, we mostly know our own weaknesses and the things we indulge in. Writing those down and identifying the problems is a good first step.

Just as important, however, is what you do after. For many people, myself included, you can't just know that you have a problem; you can't just tell an alcoholic to quit drinking and expect him to figure it out.

Most of the time we indulge in things, _especially_ when we know that we're hurting ourselves, it's for a deeper reason. The key is in not only writing down the problem, but in spending some more introspective time and identifying *why* you have a problem.

I could write a little more, but there's just some food for thought!

Greetings @chbartist

I will start my list:
Do not waste time with toxic people.
Do not worry; rather, occupy me.
Do not increase a problem situation; pose the solutions.
Do not be pessimistic; generate optimism ...

And the list goes on, it is dynamic and must be adjusted to the situations of life.

Happy Steemit.
