ProcrastiListing

The to-do list (OK, I have more than one) is a rich source of time suck. Crossed a few things of the list? Better rewrite it so it’s neat and you don’t miss anything. Added some more items? Better rewrite it so it’s in order of importance. Not to mention the joy of creating sub lists across multiple notebooks (someone please agree, I can’t be the only one).
