Setting a motion

in #ocd4 years ago

Was busy with some chores at home today when I remembered I was supposed to visit a distant cousin that just put to bed, call my grandma to catch up as she's been ill and this and that...

It was like in that instant, my brain did a quick run down of all the tasks I had been postponing and upcoming ones too.
I decided to drop what was keeping me busy at that moment, picked up my tiny notebook and pen and started making a list of all these, with boxes to tick them off when I was done.

This method has kept me going for as long as I remember as I tend to focus more on accomplishing various tasks when I outline them, penned down on some pad. Not only does it make it very easy to cross check, it also gives me this drive/push, that I've just set something in motion and shouldn't falter on my determination to achieve them.

Most importantly, I also jot down those limitations that would steer me away from fulfilling these motions and how I plan on overcoming them.

We humans have methods that works for each of us when making plans that affect our lives in whatever way. Would love to hear those thoughts guys.

The checklist method is actually quite popular or so I've seen.
I haven't used pen and paper for achieving it though. Apps and such.
It didn't work for me well overall. For the first few days it does boost my productivity and after a few days, the same old.

I guess I'm terrible at planning. Nothing ever worked.

The best way I could get some work out of me is forcibly shaming myself with insurmountable guilt. 😞🤣

@notacinephile Ohh my! The last part got me, lol.
I hope you find a way to come around that tho and find what works for you better.
Thanks for reading!

I hope so too. 😔
