I constantly have a number of projects going on that require my attention, and there is noooo way I would remember everything if I didn’t write it all down! I’ll write down meetings, deadlines, appointments, emails that need to be sent, thoughts to keep in mind - just everything I shouldn’t forget and need to keep track of. I’ve got a list on my PC that I’m constantly crossing off, and it feels great when I get to strike through a task (though, let’s be real, this is generally followed by a fresh new item needing attention!). You can make lists anywhere: I have one on my phone (generally groceries or thoughts on the fly), in my personal notebook (for general musings to remember), on my work computer (for updating my project tracker in the office), in my planner (for dates far in advance) -- It’s not hard to check them all, though all items tend to live on my laptop since that’s where I do most of my work.
The great thing about a computer list is that you can scroll, take in all of your accomplishments and see what’s left to be done! Does this sound a little crazy? Lists lists lists? What can I say. I feel like I work 24/7 and when your brain is constantly running... It’s Best to Jot, So It’s Not Forgot!

Been almost a year since my entrepreneurial venture officially began, and boy, there have been some great experiences and lessons learned!
For the 10 days leading up to the 1 year (starting tomorrow), I'll share some of my biggest insights with you all -- so stay tuned and keep posted on Toro Communications and this blog! Each of you, whether you know it or not, has shaped the direction I've gone and am going. I look forward to reflecting~ Written by CEO & Founder, Toro Adeyemi Last week, the Ossining Documentary & Discussion Series met and screened Bag It, a humorous & informative film that deals with issues surrounding single-use plastic bags. This documentary was well time as a movement towards charging for plastic bags (and banning them altogether!) has gained momentum throughout the country as well as the world. The film queries, Is Your Life Too Plastic? “We need to understand that our modern day convenience of single-use plastic bags seems free but actually comes at a very high cost to our health and environment. When we put our garbage at the curb we think it goes away. But where is away? There is no away,“ says panelist, Sharon Rowe, an Ossining-based business owner interviewed in the film. What did I take away?
It really is crazy how much plastic we use and waste and just toss away. In the images above, the OD&DS committee took on a challenge: 5 of us would collect all of the plastic we saw in the streets for 3 days before the screening.
Imagine how much we would have collected after a week. Imagine, what’s going on in your neighborhood? |
