If you're having trouble getting things done, write those things down. Write them down. Write them down. Not on an app, not on a computer document or a spreadsheet. Get a notebook and write the things down that you need to do. And then draw little boxes, draw little boxes in front of each task. and ideally actually do this before you go to bed at night before you go to sleep at night write down what you are supposed to do tomorrow write down the things that you have to do to

get where you want to be write those things down write down those tasks and you can you can put them in order of importance or you can put them in order chronologically of how you plan to get them done throughout the day doesn't really matter you'll figure out what works for you later. But for now, do this. Write them down in a list. Put a box in front of each task that you need to complete. And then when you wake up the next day, start executing the list and start checking those boxes. That is how you get things done.
