How do you accomplish things when you are very lazy, fatigued,etc?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I also have to make a list that says “CONSULT LIST!”

I break down larger tasks into smaller tasks. So “Get tax papers” becomes:

  • Download files from insurance company
  • Download files from bank 1
  • Download files from bank 2
    Etc.

The main task is not completed yet, but most of the child tasks are done, so I can measure that I am making progress.

Unfortunately, one of the papers I need is not yet available, so I can’t finish one of the child tasks. But the other big things are done.

And I use handwritten checklists. I’ll use my phone for certain reminders, but handwritten checklists are much more useful for organization.

I just keep telling myself that I’ll be so glad I did it and I won’t have it hanging over my head any longer. I can forget about it.

I’m always very happy that it’s done and over with.
