That problem can be turned into a boon. You have a better chance that there's something interesting on the list you actually want to do. Or important ones, or whatever you care about.

What about the ones you don't care about as much? Well, you don't care about them, so not doing them is not a problem.

An overlong todo list is a nice tool to help prioritize the valuable things.

I try to pick 10 or so things a day I can actually get done. That does help me feel like I accomplished at least a little bit.
