Thank you! I appreciate you for ensuring the artist gets credit. Plus I now get to see more of their stuff, so that's neat too
Happy to help! I know that people who post uncredited content on Lemmy/Piefed mean well, so I'm happy to do the research when I have the time.
Step1: Write tasks on a notebook with very small pages.
Step2: look only on the first page until everything is crossed-out
Step3: Be happy every 4 tasks to have finished "everything"
Step4: Discover by surprise that there is another page
Go to step 1
I have quite some tasks in a notebook that I haven't seen since before christmas.
This is novel, may attempt, perhaps.
Now I have 7 things to do instead of just one.
That’ll work great. /s
The whole list thing and how you should organize all the task depending on how urgent they are never worked for me.
I have been told to do this, but I can't do it without a lot of help. It's as if my brain doesn't compute that some things are more urgent than others. All things are equally urgent in my head. So you can tell me to do it, even ask me which task is the most urgent one, and I'll just stare at you as if you just spoke to me in Russian. I don't fucking know. I don't know what is more important. I don't know what I need to do first.
When someone else breaks it down for me, I totally see it. It's like the fog lifts and it's so simple and easy to understand, but the second they leave me to do it on my own, I'm back in the fog and everything looks the same. Equally urgent.
I've gotten a tiny bit better at it with age, but I am still pretty shite overall.
Also, disclaimer: not officially diagnosed. Just for good measure.
