I've used tasked in the past but I'm taking it to the next step. I had an old friend who uses it for herself and her daughter religiously and in my opinion successfully. I'm not using it the same way but I have upped my usage. As I get older the need seems greater plus my brain is different, weird. There's probably a category for it but I'm not interested in being placed in a box.
Previously to using task I've tried to plan out my day to the very last minute and get discouraged when I don't follow it. It wasn't until two things happened that lead me to using task to help me on this latest journey. Emanuel Acho said something about goals and the other day I'm realizing the scheduling of my day was actually hurting me and not helping me. There's something I've been using in outlook at work that has kept me on track and I think this should be used for my goals and dreams. So this is how I came up with using Task daily. I put things down that I want to accomplish, some of them have deadlines but most of them do not.
The task not having deadlines allows me to do them when I do them. No time limit and when I accomplish them I feel good. Maybe this will lead me to the millions I've been searching for or I've been dreaming about. Either case it's been working for me since I started this past Saturday. This is actually the first time I wrote anything in a long while. I've actually done a few things I haven't done in a while.
I'm awake because I was woken up by a phone call from a co-worker. I'm assuming she but dialed me because I answered the phone and no one said anything. I thought something was wrong at first because it is the earliest she ever called. The call came in at 7:11 AM. Now that I am up there are several task that I need to complete. It's kind of an exciting day for me because of the type of task I have for myself for today.
One of the task is to play basketball. I really need to get active again because my bad cholesterol or good cholesterol is not doing so well and part of the reason, my doctor says, is that I'm no longer active. If I walk or exert any type of energy this should improve. I'm also fat so that should help me shed a few pounds. I'm having a new baby, a baby boy, so I will need to be able to keep up with him. And if I'm closer to death then I need to be then I will not be able to do anything with him. I see so many other men in their 40s and 50s doing so much better than me. So all I need to do is take that one step and go out there and as I previously wrote these task instead of scheduling seems to be more motivating to me. I will definitely be back on here and provide an update on this journey.
The other task involves some form of creative writing. I have to write something for this website, an entertainment piece. I will most likely write something in Imagination section. Whatever I decide to write it will be my first piece of writing I've done in over a year.
