I feel personally called out.

Clearly all those were created when you had an excess of motivation. Lol

Woah woah woah, cut yourself some slack! Every 2 weeks?? Nah, once a month. 9AM? Give yourself time to wake up and think clearly! 10AM or 11AM if you're not a morning person

Yeah, but we gotta eat first. Let's do it after lunch 👌

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Sometimes I don’t eat lunch until 3pm. Then it’s back to work, and then dinner around 6. By the time I’m done with dinner, I’m just too tired to do anything for the rest of the evening. So, might as well set the reminder for 9am and hope I’m annoyed enough with the reminder badge to do it tomorrow.

Setting a task to look at the task is next level procrastination I could only dream of achieving

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. I easily forget things.

Have you considered to get yourself checked for ADHD?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Hehe. Yeah, I’ve been diagnosed with adhd. All of the reminders and notes and reminders for reminders are to help me manage it. But I’m open to more suggestions from others for better ways.

IDK if this is helpful for you, but for myself, as long as I get one thing on my to-do list done, I consider that day a win, and I try not to be too hard on myself for letting things slip. It's really easy for me to get overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things on my list, but by just taking things one at a time, I know I'll slowly get through it.

On a tangential note, care to share your pickled pepper recipe?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Same here. One thing is a good day. More than one thing is a great day. Zero things and it’s okay. Try again tomorrow.

F the dust, get on those peppers!

I respect your priorities.

Try staggering those start days and times. A flood of reminders is easier to ignore than if they were spread out across the two weeks and the time is set to when you are most likely to be ready to act.
