What our relationship to lists is
The feeling we have when we get to check something off the list
 
Resources Mentioned In This Podcast Episode:
If You Want to Change the World, Start Off by Making Your Bed - William Mcraven, US Navy Admiral
Research supporting the benefits of an unmade bed: According to a 2005 study from Kingston University, dust mites can't survive in the dry conditions of an unmade bed. Dust mites can thrive in the dark, damp spaces of a bed, and they can produce an allergen that triggers asthma-like symptoms. Making your bed too quickly can also trap moisture in your sheets, which can allow dust mites to thrive.
