20 Lists You Need To Finally Organize Your Life

As a very, very organized person, I tend to make lots of lists. I make to do lists, to buy lists, packing lists, books/movies/TV shows to watch lists, gratitude lists and the list goes on. See what I did there? ;)

Anyways, I thought I would offer some of my list making advice to you peeps. Just so you can better organize and structure your lives.

So here is a list of things I have and continue to put into lists.

1. List of Passions

Make a list of all of the things you're passionate about.

2. Prayer List

3. Songs to Download

4. List of Dreams

Make a list of your biggest dreams, smallest dreams and every one in between!

5. List of Your Favorite Quotes and/or Bible Verses

6. Easy and Quick Meals

I don't know about you guys but it always takes me FOREVER to decide what to eat. So, a list of quick and easy meals to make is very helpful.

7. Your Favorite Restaurants

It's also helpful to have a list of your go-to or favorite restaurants, for when you can't decide where to eat. And because food is life.

8. Bucket List

Make a list of everything you want to do or see before you die! Or you could make a list of things you want to do before you go somewhere, leave somewhere, during a season, for a holiday, before you turn a certain age, before you get married/ have kids, etc. For example, you could make a list of things you want to do on your campus before you graduate!

9. Pro/Con List

Whenever I'm faced with a big or small decision, it always helps me to make a pro/con list. Just to get all of your thoughts out and onto paper, so you can better decide!

10. Gratitude List

Jot down everything you're thankful for, and look back at it when you forget (for me that's every day).

11. Summer/Spring/Fall/Winter Reading List

12. Christmas Present List

Christmas is coming up, so you should make a list of presents you want to give and receive.

13. Thirteen (Or More) Reasons Why

I really enjoyed the movie and book, 13 Reasons Why. The show made me think a lot about my life, and the decisions I make. So I decided to make a list, similar to Hannah's, except mine is thirteen reasons why I want to live. This list was basically a reminder of the things I'm most thankful for in my life.

14. Important Dates to Remember

Anniversaries, birthdays, holidays, exam dates, movie/book release dates, etc.

15. Movies to Watch

Jot down all the new or old movies you want to watch!

16. TV Shows to Watch

Jot down all the new or old shows you want to binge!

17. Places You Want to Visit


18. Goals List

It has been proven that you are more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down and look at them often. So make a yearly, 2-year, 5-year, 10-year, and/or lif goals list, and put it somewhere you often look! Like near your makeup mirror, in your planner, or by your bed!

19. List of Your Favorite Things

20. List of Odyssey Articles to Write

I try to jot article ideas down whenever they come to me, so I'm not trying to figure something out the night of.

HAPPY LIST MAKING, HOMIES!!

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
