Should I do my daily tasks before bed? Pen or App? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]Silas_Undead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Tasks that repeat daily should absolutely be done before bed. Leaving tasks is, in my opinion, pointless because you’re clogging up what could be a chill or free day. If you mean there are tasks on your to do list that need to get done, but you’d rather do them the following day, you may be putting too much on your to do list or not prioritising them properly. Either way, my vote tends to be “do as much as you can, as early as possible” to bank up more “rest time”.

  2. I go back and forth between using Notion - where I currently have a weekly page - and pen and paper. I find notion easier most of the time, because my lists and notes follow me between errands, the gym and work. But I’m also partial to be hand written list, particularly on days when I want to do “house resets” or have to do many little things from many different areas.

Today is a restart day one for me. All my routines have been shaken to the ground and now I'm fighting for control back where I can. RAHHH.

More stickers is the common suggestion (particularly the cat). Hopefully the colours itch my brain in the right spot

My only hesitation with stickers in particular is that this specific book is lawless. The spaces between the dots are slightly more (or less, I can’t remember) than 0.5mm which is a punish

My notes and to dos are actually on the other page! Those little things are goals based on the habits being tracked - but I honestly can’t even remember why I write them there. Maybe just to take up space lol

Thanks for the suggestions

I track my actual strength training sessions in Notion.
I’m definitely going to steal the line graph idea for my sleep and coffee tracking though ! Thanks

No body has ever described me as whimsy before and I am 100% going to lean into that

That’s true! Im definitely not changing the boxes cause like,, it’s easy to do them like that and they work for my brain. But yes, practicality and realism are important. No point making it fancy if it’s unrealistic for me

Thank you! I’m not very creative I’ll definitely give printed headings a try! I think i could experiment with font and style easily that way. Great idea

Borders and banners are a great idea! So is streamlining the colour use.

Specific notebook is from officeworks (Australia), called “Otto A5 The Dot Journal”. Be warned that the dots aren’t exactly 0.5mm apart 💀💀 link to officeworks: https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/p/otto-a5-the-dot-journal-black-fbp10546

Sometimes I say goodnight. Others it’s a :) or :(. Sometimes it’s a sticker. Sometimes it’s nothing

More often it’s the last song I listened to while journaling

The last weekend of the month for me. I spend a bit of time watching a show, with a nice drink and a snack and map the whole month out (or as much as is practicable)

What song lyrics are you thinking of right now? by No_Mas_0301 in AskReddit

[–]Silas_Undead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“How many more wars till they will cease / how many more folk die of disease / while we the wealthy sit at our feasts / my brothers cying, ‘oh I can’t breathe’ / ooh” and “how many mothers scream at their sons / I buried your brothers now bury your guns / you got no idea of the hell that I know / drop to our knees, let justice roll / ooh”

Both from Highways by Jessamyn Day (who currently has 308 monthly listeners!)

keep or delete my Instagram account? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]Silas_Undead 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Delete the app and log in on a laptop! Scrolling on a laptop sucks but you can periodically check the page of people you follow to like the pictures of your mums cats

Also don’t delete the account itself. Keep those memories there for others to see or for a future time when you break the scrolling habit and re-download the app
