It’s a part of the “everything you do must be awesome” movement. They forget that most people have a job and a personal life to take care of. Ticking items in a todo list is perfectly fine. Also I had a feeling their main argument is that they’re getting overwhelmed by the list itself. I guess it can be a problem, but the solution is to learn to let your list go sometimes. You must re-assess it regularly.

I guess it can be a problem, but the solution is to learn to let your list go sometimes. Yeah, near the end: > Here's my challenge. If you can't wake up every day and, using your 100% original equipment God-given organic brain, come up with the three most important things you need to do that day – then you should seriously work on fixing that. I don't mean install another app, or read more productivity blogs and books. You have to figure out what's important to you and what motivates you; ask yourself why that stuff isn't gnawing at you enough to make you get it done. Fix that. He's kinda indirectly saying you should have a daily to-do list, started anew instead of ever-growing, just avoiding using the term "to-do list". Amusing little aside, I use "to-do list" instead of "todo list" because I can't help read it as the Spanish "todo", which would translate to "everything list". That would be too overwhelming a list.
