How to Handle Having TOO MUCH To Do

So let’s say you’re in the same boat I am (this is a running theme, have you noticed?) and you’ve just got, like, SO MUCH STUFF that HAS to get done YESTERDAY or you will DIE (or fail/get fired/mope). Everything needs to be done yesterday, you’re sick, and for whatever reason you are focusing on the least important stuff first. What to do!

Take a deep breath, because this is a boot camp in prioritization.

Make a 3 by 4 grid. Make it pretty big. The line above your top row goes like this: Due YESTERDAY - due TOMORROW - due LATER. Along the side, write: Takes 5 min - Takes 30 min - Takes hours - Takes DAYS.

Divide ALL your tasks into one of these squares, based on how much work you still have to do. A thank you note for a present you received two weeks ago? That takes 5 minutes and was due YESTERDAY. Put it in that square. A five page paper that’s due tomorrow? That takes an hour/hours, place it appropriately. Tomorrow’s speech you just need to rehearse? Half an hour, due TOMORROW. Do the same for ALL of your tasks

Your priority goes like this:

5 minutes due YESTERDAY

5 minutes due TOMORROW

Half-hour due YESTERDAY

Half-hour due TOMORROW

Hours due YESTERDAY

Hours due TOMORROW

5 minutes due LATER

Half-hour due LATER

Hours due LATER

DAYS due YESTERDAY

DAYS due TOMORROW

DAYS due LATER

At this point you just go down the list in each section. If something feels especially urgent, for whatever reason - a certain professor is hounding you, you’re especially worried about that speech, whatever - you can bump that up to the top of the entire list. However, going through the list like this is what I find most efficient.

Some people do like to save the 5 minute tasks for kind of a break between longer-running tasks. If that’s what you want to try, go for it! You’re the one studying here.

So that’s how to prioritize. Now, how to actually do shit? That’s where the 20/10 method comes in. It’s simple: do stuff like a stuff-doing FIEND for 20 minutes, then take a ten minute break and do whatever you want. Repeat ad infinitum. It’s how I’ve gotten through my to do list, concussed and everything.

You’ve got this. Get a drink and start - we can do our stuff together!

Some reminders

Mental health is just as important as physical health by @cwote

Don’t let your mind bully your body

There’s a difference between: pushing yourself and pushing yourself pass your limit by @chibird

Your life can look so different, so much better, in just a few months. keep going by @studyblr

Reminder: you can’t change the past and worrying makes you suffer twice. we all forget that once in a while.

Remember that time you thought you wouldn’t survive? Well you did and you can do it again

You aren’t a problem that needs to be solved

You are not unloveable

Mental health first, everything will follow

I may not be there yet but i’m closer than i was yesterday

Everything you feel is real

Allow yourself to recover

You matter

It’s a disorder, not a decision

Its okay if the only thing you did today was survive

Focus on the good

Stop beating yourself up. You didn’t do anything wrong

Hey, it’s not your fault

You don’t have to justify your emotions to anyone

Never apologise for how you feel

I’ve finally mostly recovered from my little sore throat. I typed out my visions for my future and I kind of loved it and so I wrote it down. I also worked on my July spread and I really love it. I’ll post it tomorrow :) This spread isn’t completed cos i want to add some accents, but I left some materials back on campus.
