#todolistfridays: Small Weekly Steps to Building a Big-Hearted Life

By: Blackwell, Don

A Note From the Author on How to Get the Most Out of This Book

For much of the past two years, I've posted regularly on LinkedIn each Monday and Friday under the hashtags #MondayMusings and #ToDoListFridays. My hope was simple: to encourage readers to become a bit more introspective and intentional in their pursuit of a more whole- and open-hearted life.

One day, a dear friend suggested I gather 52 of the #ToDoListFriday posts into a single manuscript, paired with reflection prompts. The goal was to offer readers-young and old alike-another way to reconnect with the uniquely beautiful hearts we all carried into this world.

As with its predecessor, The Playbook of Your Childhood Heart, there is no "right" way to read this book. Still, I structured it with the hope that each Friday, you might spend a few minutes reading that week's item and then carry its invitation with you throughout the days that follow.

To support that rhythm, I've included a small set of "Reflect & Respond" prompts. These aren't meant to overwhelm you or imply that you should complete them all, but rather to offer entry points-any one of which might resonate and spark journaling, insight, or growth.

You are not limited to these prompts. Your heart may have its own direction in mind, and if it does, follow it-always. For what it's worth, many prompts never made it into this book at all.

Wishing you a patient, thoughtful, playful, and whimsical journey.

With warmth and gratitude,

Don
