Sometimes men just need do just need to be told what to do. A list is a good way for a man to see what needs to be done, men may see a checklist or list of To-Do's as a challenge, which they may process better than a few spoken reminders.
You could also write down a due date or a timeline for the To-Do list, as in:
Monday: Take out garbage
Wednesday: Sweep driveway
April 5, 2007 - Remember our 22nd anniversary, take wife out to dinner and buy her roses
