Similar to a to-do list, I believe making time for each task every day will help you put your daily routine in perspective. Even better, It may help you re-assess what's more important and what you can do without.

Have you....

1. Prayed for at least five minutes today? Got in some Devo time to study and Hear from God?
2. Told God thank You for the things in front of you (literally and figuratively)?
3. Told God thank You for the things around and behind you (literally and figuratively)
4. Looked someone in the eyes and smiled as they walked by?
5. Not taken part in the office/workplace gossip?
6. Said something positive and actively negated the negative?
7. Did something nice without a motive, without seeking recognition or posterity?
8. Told your children/spouse/sister/friend you loved them just because of who they are?
9. Been honest with yourself? Acknowledging past mishaps while looking in the mirror with acceptance of who you are?
10. Taken wonder of your surroundings? i.e. looked at nature; breathed in the outside air; felt the wind on your skin; took the time out to walk in God's beauty and admire His craftsmanship?

I could go on and on with this list but I wanted to keep it short and simple. Take one today and begin making it a habit. Then add on from there. Your life will be more fulfilled once you take inventory of what matters vs. what's just taking up space.
