That's a tough one... I am one who pushes too hard and so I may not be the best for advice. But I would say, if you are feeling a strong urge to do it, then it's a productive thing. From my perspective, it sounds like something you're feeling motivated to do, and maybe it'd be a good thing to ride the momentum from your giving him the list. For me, it'd be kind of like, may as well do it now before I decide I don't want to!
I don't think you should worry too much if it's your T's perspective you're taking about pushing too hard. I often know when I'm pushing too hard when I start punishing myself for not making the progress I think I should be making. In fact that might really be my only metric. Otherwise, pushing when I'm feeling motivated to just go the extra mile is often rewarding.
