This is a wonderful idea! I've been pretty low on motivation myself lately and have an overwhelming assortment of tasks I keep putting off. Your list gave me an idea though...
I'm fully aware that I'm an expert procrastinator, but perhaps coming up with a list similar to yours that describes things I want to do or accomplish for fun/my well-being could help motivate me to get the tasks done that intimidate me. Like for every item on my "to-do-list-that-overwhelms-me", I can reward myself with doing something off of the fun list.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~Marianne Williamson
