Single Column To-Do List
Our first to do list is as simple as it gets. We’ve provided a single-column list with space to get all of your thoughts down. And of course we had to provide boxes to check off as we complete each item. Ahhhhh… so satisfying!
Consider printing several copies of the to do list(s) of your choice and popping them into a binder or folder so they’re there when you need them.
Two-Column To Do List Templates
Our second to do list option is similar to the first, just with two columns instead of one. That means it fits double the to-dos! If you’re making a really big list of tasks, this printable would be perfect for you.
Again, check off your items as you complete each one and gain the satisfaction that comes with finishing the job!

- Kid-related to-dos
- Cleaning tasks or chores
- Home maintenance tasks
- Church or volunteering to-dos
- Books to read
- Movies or shows to watch

Whatever categories you want to keep track of, you can use this to-do list to do it!
Cute To Do List Based on Task Urgency
Sometimes it’s helpful to break down our to do list by when certain tasks need to happen.
This list helps us clarify what is urgent and needs to be done today. It has space to plan out what we need to do tomorrow.
We can write down what needs to be done by the end of the week. And we can put non-urgent items on the schedule for next week.
Then we can simply attack the items on our list in order of urgency, and everything will get done on time!

Eisenhower Matrix Daily To Do List Template
The final to do list is one of our favorites. You may never have heard the phrase “Eisenhower Matrix” before, but you’ve probably seen the four-quadrant decision making system at some point in your life.
The Eisenhower Matrix helps us weigh the urgency and importance of each of our tasks and then take specific actions on those tasks based on where they fall in the matrix.
Tasks that are both urgent and important go in the upper left quadrant. These are the tasks that we’ll want to do first.
Tasks that are less urgent but still important are placed in the upper right quadrant. We’ll want to add these tasks to our schedule to make sure they are completed within the necessary timeframe.
Tasks that are urgent but are less important go in the lower left quadrant of the matrix. We should try to delegate these tasks if at all possible so we can spend our time on other things.
And finally, tasks that are neither urgent nor important go in the lower right quadrant of the matrix. We should consider crossing these tasks off our list and not spending our time on them at all.
When we’re feeling overwhelmed by everything on our to do list, employing the Eisenhower Matrix can help us put things into perspective and prioritize so we are spending our time on what is truly important.
There’s more where that came from!
