[Accountability] The Easiest Way to Get Everything Done
Trouble staying accountable?
Do you find it hard to remember what you're supposed to be doing?
Do you get absorbed in one task so much you forget everything else?
Here's the solution.
- Take graph paper.
- Write down the numbers of the month's day on the left edge, vertically.
- Write your daily tasks by priority from left to right on the top edge.
- Sign them off at the end of the day.
This creates a nice grid, like so:
Days \ Tasks | Chores | Write | Prospect | Post on Steemit | etc |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 1 | 1h | 2h | 3h | etc |
2 | 1 | 1h | 2h | 3h | etc |
3 | 1 | 1h | 2h | 3h | etc |
You get the idea.
Point is, you only need one piece of paper. You only need one pen. And you can see at a glance what you've been doing, and adjust accordingly.
Trying to live without a schedule is possible... but subpar.
It's difficult to stay on track, especially when something happens and throws you off.
This way, you don't need to stress about when you're doing things, only that you do them.
So if something happens, there's no feeling of "it's past the time window I scheduled, I'll just skip it".
It's still there, and it still needs to be done.
Anyway. Hope you find it helpful as I do.

PS. I never realized how pretty the tables in SteemIt posts are. Nice!
