Problem Phase
1. Identify a need:
I have a lot to do, and I usually can’t remember everything that needs to be done (short term and long term)
2. Brainstorm some solutions:
Planner, online scheduling app, notepad, post-it notes, task manager, etc.
3. Put one into practice:
I have a small white notepad next to me on my desk. Anytime I need to know what to do, I look at it. Anytime I find out about a new task, I write it down. If it gets messy, I tear of the page and rewrite it.
