How to Organize your daily tasks

Re: How to Organize your daily tasks

1. Plan your week so that you have at least 2 days of no obligations to work, school, non-petty expenses, etc.
2. Make plenty of time for food and sleep.
3. Leave earlier than you have to so that you can actually enjoy the ride.
4. Wander aimlessly for a whole afternoon at least once a week, this helps me remember, in a pleasant and non-rushed way, all the things I have to do for the week, month, year and even lifetime.
5. Don't do groceries, buy your favorite item from the store, take a walk and ingest it or keep it in a hiding place like dogs do. Then go back for another item you really would enjoy and repeat the above. You'll get plenty of excercise living like this and will reconnect with your primordial hunter/gather spirit even though you live in the city.
6. Every now and then, skip doing some mundane task that's required of you by others, kind of as a treat to yourself, just to ride out the feel of its consequences. When you're done, you will have noticed its triviality in the grand scheme of things. If it triggers an outrage by others, you will know that maybe you should skip more mundane tasks associated with them and get away from them in life.
7. Make sure to scout your city for edible berries and fruit growing in places you could reach without trespassing to an exaggerated degree. Keep 1 of each that you find and make a collection to show your friends and family.
8. If you are not single, it will be a great asset to the rest of your life to now determine whether your significant other understands all of the above and can perhaps join you in enterprises other than sex and obligations.
10. Watch Office Space sometimes.
11. Go to Hyeclub forums, we are an extention of your mind and can help you. We love you very much and you can feel at home with us.

Re: How to Organize your daily tasks

I forgot to add that the drawback to using an external aid (e.g. planner, to do list, pda) is that you have to remember to check it to see what you have to do. If you aren't going to remember to look at it, it's worthless.

So, if you write notes, put it somewhere you'll see it.
Post-it's on computer screen, front door, on dash of car like over speedometer area, etc).
I find the cellphone useful because you check that a throughout the day, so you're likely to get those reminders.

Then there's the obvious... if you never write it down, set up a reminder, etc, you're screwed... Case in point - I just remembered my electric bill... Frack!

12. Graffiti your to-do list 10 times a day, this will help you indefinitely. After doing this for a few months, try to make it an art form, carve your to-do list into large rocks, mow a descriptive crop circle, think big. You will make it into the history books, and so will our forum...:
