How does everyone stay organized and focused? I have lists on top of lists of things to do, and some things are started, but when I start one thing, I see something else that needs to be done. I'll start on that.
Have a forwards and a backwards list? Do list what you need to do that week, so you don't forget it completely.. and then instead of ticking it off the list, write a new one with the things you have achieved instead
Task #1 look at list Check it off!
So I read in one of the procrastination articles on here that list of goals and things to do are great but even with a list it’s still hard to function because we need our lists simplified. So instead of having a list of big goals it’s best to simplify each goal into tiny little steps. The more simplistic each goal and each step is the better.
Stay?? R u kidding?? I try but my brain won’t let me. My brain refuses! It says leave that there even though it doesn’t belong there and it is only 10 feet from where it belongs! How hard is it to put where it belongs?? Not for the normal person! But my brain says “”NOOOoo!!!, FIGHt the urge to comply! “ and it does all the time. Just like it refuses and won’t let me complete a project to 100 percent! I would have completed it to 99.9 percent and my brain takes over and makes me, forces me to leave 0.01 percent not done right!! Why?? Why is that?? Makes me mad!
My husband thinks I never get anything done because it is spread across the house, rooms , etc. not straightening or organizing just one space, oh no, it has to several spaces to do it right. He hates that! But efficient. But it looks like nothing got done. So unless it is perfect, no idea it was done. Worse yet! Try to rearrange furniture! He hates it! I would do it everytime he went out of town! But he insisted I put it back! Whip, whip whip!
Seriously! That happens to me too. It's like my brain is saying that you must leave evidence for everyone else to see that you did something. If you make it perfect, no one will know all that you've done. So annoying!
A big paper list I keep in a prominent place and a list on my phone.
Lists, books, notes, pictures on my cellphone...
Have loads of lists to have loads of trouble focusing on completing lately been much worse hoping app here will help us.
