Lists are an amazing way to take a daunting task, like succeeding in your career, and breaking it down into little action items. We like to call it, "mini-tasking." Instead of trying to multi-task and take everything on at once, we like to slow down, think things through, and complete them one tiny step at a time. And it reminds us of a wonderful story we read in the New York Times Magazine that we recently blogged about on our site about a woman in rural Africa who used a checklist to make her wildest dreams a reality.

It's easy to even have ideas, and then just keep them floating around in our brains (and hearts). Writing them down, though, gives all sorts of added credence to them. They all seem more real. I did something similar recently with a life coach I was working with (more along the line of a Life List). And it has been so good for me. I'm now seeing just how good it will be for me to do this same thing along the vein of a career list. I'm excited to do this!! What a great, great concept! Karl,

Let me know what you put on it. Hi Marelisa, specific goals make dreams come true. Hi Megan, a career should be about fun and personal development. It's these core concepts that make a person feel alive and excited to do work. Hi Lisa, a career assessment is a great idea. I would recommend the Strong Interest Inventory. Hi Jodi, small actionable chunks makes everything seem easier. Hi Nathan, having confidence in what we can achieve can a great motivator. Hi J.D., yes! To the stars. Hi Walter, sticking to it is the hard part, but at least you have a plan to track your development. Hi Positively Present, go for it. Let me know what you put on it.

It organizes your task and unclogged our mind. The only next step to do is to stick to what you write. :-) Writing a career list is a good idea. It organizes your task and unclogged our mind.
