Interesting. I absolutely need the list. If I get into the unfortunate situation to start a day without having the list already, I have to use 100 % of my willpower to just make a list. I have to tell myself: "You can eat a whole cake and watch videos for 2 hours if you just MAKE the list. Don't actually have to do anything on it."

Its definitely easier to start with the list, but I can make one easy enough in the morning. I'm less likely to do the things on the list though. I can't let myself do anything that's time-based as a reward, like TV, k just forget everything else. Those sorts of things are for after the list is done.
