This is very satisfying!
I have the very inelegant tactic of pinning stuff but pinned items have lost all meaning now I have about 15 things pinned to the top of my emails!
The day thing is helpful because it is so hard to filter by importance when it’s just one big block of emails.
Nice idea!
I also struggle with visual clutter but also need to be able to see everything so a bit contradictory. Hence the bee need to have things visible but organised and also aesthetically pleasing I suppose.
Haha yeah, it’s aimed mostly towards people who struggle with clutter in some way I suppose as she sells solutions (products, advice etc) and has a YouTube channel aimed at that.
I love a whiteboard. And also wall info. I’m a teacher and I stick my timetable on the wall in multiple spaces so I can see from where I sit, my classes and number of kids per class also on the wall in more than one place and other things. Storing things on wall in a place you look often is great for reducing time it takes to fish out important info.
Yes first one is good. Second one…I am extremely list blind. Looking at list needs to be made into a routine / hobby and I often have to try and use novelty to get it to work hence constantly changing how I do lists which is a bit contradictory with the routine element.
Fridge lists never worked for me. Phone does to an extent until it’s not a novelty anymore and it’s just …there. reminders last like a day before I automatically cancel them without reading.
Yes I often carry an entire rucksack with loads of random things in which people find odd but I like to be prepared!
Yes I like the pre packaged bag idea. I do this to an extent but also accidentwlly use my bag as a dumping ground.
I’ve been chasing my meds for over 2 weeks and have had a similar tale of woes. Completely out of stock here but also didn’t find out until I had already faffed around for a few days too. I walked into my Dr’s finally and said to receptionist please help as this is pointless. She assured me pharmacy team would get hold of me. They haven’t. I’ve just given up at this point.
I tried to wipe the coffee stain off my phone.
Sometimes feels like these days are the norm to be honest and the days where I can do stuff is the exception to the rule. I’ve managed to up my work productivity massively with meds and habits but man life is still such a challenge. I find I feel suddenly hopeless whenever I have ‘‘free’’ time.
Yeh I know. I think the core functionality of a bullet journal (minimalist, mostly just doing dailies with an index) is the most useful thing to get right and if developed as a habit can work even when you’re overwhelmed and have less time. I just find even getting myself to open a notebook is a challenge when I’m all frantic and all over the place.
I consistently use a notebook for work (sort of) but find that I have a tendency to lose it everywhere if I carry it around too much also. I started using Google keep so I could have access to my thoughts everywhere and didnt have to keep walking around with a notebook I was likely to put down and forget.
Beautiful pic but I’m sick of Mancunian weather right now!
Yeah I just have Google keep and calendar pinned to every browser on ever computer / laptop I use (personal laptop, work laptop, computer in my classroom (teacher), office computer).
I’m also ATM having fun with obsidian. I want to open it whenever I go on laptop because it’s currently a novelty and I want to look at it. I’ve got periodic notes plug in, some kind of to do list plug in and another to do list plug in to make them roll over to the next day. I open up a daily note, check my to do and then check Google keep (where I dump thoughts) to see whether I need to add anything else to my to do.
I still need to set up s way to sync to phone as at the moment I can only use on laptop. I’ve read his to do it I just…can’t be bothered.
I had a lot of success with bullet journalling for a long while but as usually happens I fell off the habit. I’ve come to accept that I have to constantly think of novel ways to organise and change them around as that’s the way my brain works. I do love bullet journalling though, it’s really effective when used consistently and in a way to fit your use case.
Nice recommendation :) I really like goblin tools. I used it when I needed to write a letter and couldn’t think where to start. It gave me a structure which was really helpful.
I am soo blind to phone reminders. I have one go off every day telling me what to take to work and it’s just a thing that exists that I jus switch off daily without thinking. Can’t even be bothered to remove it.
I have a dumping area in the kitchen where I eat my breakfast and drink my coffee. I shove anything I need to remember in what will be my eye line when I sit down.
I have tried the tip someone gave me once of putting house keys on top of lunch box on fridge as well so as not to forget it. Pretty good idea!
I have a routine of just pulling my lunch out when I get the milk for my coffee at the moment though and that’s working quite well.
Yes me too
