Have you ever found a todo list (paper or electronic) weeks, months or even years after you lost track of it? Do you recall how stressed out you were when creating that list and how half the things on it seemed to be matters of life and death? And now here it is, that list, many if not most of the items on it undone and here you are, alive and unscathed. Maybe that's what we should do. Make lists and then put them aside to be read at a later date as insights into what really matters to us.
