What Can Wait Today?
Reducing the sense that everything is equally urgent, by sorting it once, out loud.
A keep-close version. Read it here, or screenshot this page to have it on your phone — print and PDF copies will appear once final files are attached.
Everything feels equally urgent when it lives in the same head. This page moves what can wait onto paper, before the day starts — so shrinking the day costs one glance instead of a renegotiation.
Needs attention
Genuinely today — and it's allowed to be a very short list.
Today's true necessities
e.g. Medication at 6pm
Helpful but not urgent
Would help, could wait
e.g. Replying to my sister
Could wait
Fine for another day
e.g. The hoovering
Could be delegated
Someone else's job today
e.g. The parcel return — Mum offered
Could be dropped completely
The things kept only by guilt. They're allowed to go.
Guilt's items
e.g. The thing I only do so it 'looks right'
Moved is not dropped. Everything on this page still exists tomorrow — it just stopped being your today.
You do not have to solve everything here. Sorting it once was the work.
