I love the angle you're coming from. But I couldn't agree more.

Can someone live a life without plans? No! One must plan his or her life. Common! You can't live a life at random – this will only keep your life in a circle.

Having a to-do list helps you stay organized toward achieving your goal.

Having a to-do list doesn't mean you must achieve all of them in a single day but it has you transitioning to the next thing on your list.

So one should not feel disturbed about trying to do everything on the list at a time. Rather one should just do less.

If you can not achieve the next thing on your list, then push it to the next day. Most importantly, one should ensure that he/she is performing well.

I do not encourage doing away with a to-do list – because we are humans – even the slightest distraction can make us shirk.
