It gives me the freedom to think about things not of things as David has said. But it is not a magical pill. Deciding what not to do can begin to get stressful if I have not done a recent weekly review.

It’s hard to decide not to do certain things but very rewarding, both in the time and mental energy you save. One strategy I use to decide what not to do is think about the worst possible consequence of not doing it. Often I can’t think of anything.

It can be quite refreshing when you let yourself ‘off the hook’ for something that you had initially planned to do. Of course, this is much easier when you have control over the entire landscape of the things you need/want to do.
