TO-DO list:
- Make TO-DO list
- Don’t do anything on the TO-DO list
- Realise step 2 is paradoxical because I’m already making the TO-DO list
- Read the entire Wikipedia page about paradoxes
Idk, to me to-do lists are things I use to externalize the 10 different thoughts bouncing around in my head, which quiets it down for a bit and allows me to think about the most important one(usually the first one on the list that inspired the list). Makes me feel good the other things are documented and lets me forget about it for a moment.
Everyone is different and has a different strategy that works for them.🤷♂️
Personally, I’d make the Todo list, put it down somewhere unconventional, and then forget where it’s at or even forget it existed in the first place.
Some people will give the most common advice and then get pissy when someone says that isn’t helpful for them.
I find the act of making the list is helpful for prioritising tasks, but I wind up referring to it very little if at all.
Usually I make it while waiting for food or on public transport
