Day 17 – The Value of a Checklist

Published: April 12, 2016, 1:30 p.m.

As it is with our trek of life, first we need to have a good understanding of where we are heading and why. We then need to have a plan on how we are going to travel towards our destination. We can refer back to Day 12 for some guidance as we discussed The Compass and the Clock.

Each of us should have a set of guidelines or a code that we live by. This will establish our baseline for the decisions that we need to make each day. While we may not see a lot of progress made on certain days, it does not take too long to realize that the days string together quickly. If we don’t have a set of guidelines, or as it were, a checklist, then we will stumble blindly on, never ending up where we desire to be.
