As a person that has ADHD organized is not
in my list of strong abilities, however it is an essential part of life
that I need to get under control. Therefore, for the next 30 days I am
going to try a new method of getting organized and getting things
done. I am going to categorize it.
Accomplishing Tasks:
Break up my day into “work” and “personal.” My goal will be to
accomplish only 3 goals per day nothing more that way I don’t overwhelm
myself which is easy to do with ADHD. Here is it visually
Work:
1. Design new data structure
2. Redo class and add unit testing
3. Work on Report service
Personal:
1. Study Calc III for an hour
2. Research, CSS adapters for ASP.NET
3. Make post about CSS Adapters
For studying I will make flashcards to just carry around with me and still do the 1 hour thing with a book cracked open.
Events, Dates, and Tasks will all be handled in outlook integrated with my PDA. My PDA will become and integral part of me or a note book can work too. We’ll see what I end up using.
And for the final thing to do. Once a week clean my desk and office so that it isn’t cluttered and won’t overwhelm me.
My goal is to do this for 30 days then see how I did and where I can tweak this system to do better.
