[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm super productive. I had to learn to be this way. I realized there was never a right time or a perfect time or a time when I'd magically want to do something; you just have to do it without thinking about it. My mental health is better when I'm busy and don't spend too much energy thinking about things. If I get working on something, I feel happier. Do things right away before they pile up. Do the dishes, don't let them sit. Break up projects (can apply to anything) into smaller jobs. Do things out of order if needed and do all the easy parts first. Don't let co-workers waste your time. Make use of down time to make phone calls for appointments and when you need to be on hold. Use drive time to make calls (Bluetooth, hands free). Make lists of what you need to do and keep adding the activity to your list until you do it. Get help for things you need help with. Eliminate activities that you don't want to do. For me: gardening and yard work. Block off time for what you need to do. Batch errands together so you don't have to make several trips. Accept that you won't have much time to sit around and be okay with that. Rest when you need it too and be confident in your abilities. [/quote] This is pretty much exactly me. My husband calls it high motor. I just don’t let myself sit still unless it’s time to relax. Otherwise my day is scheduled into chunks and I pick something off my to do list for each chunk of time. Perhaps most important thing above - do not let others waste your time. For me, this means good meeting discipline. If a meeting is 30 minutes, I’m walking out at 31 minutes. [/quote]
