I created a to-do list board to keep myself organized and motivated. I included five different sections with different tasks and reminders that play a large role in my daily life. The first section is homework where I included a post-it note for each of my classes. The second section is called “self-care” as it focuses on some activities that I would like to continue doing or do more of. The third section is dedicated to my 30 day workout challenge. I am planning on starting one of these challenges, so this will allow me to cross off or remove the post-it note for each day. The fourth section is for my applications that need to be completed. The fifth section is called “organization” and it focuses on reorganizing or cleaning certain areas in my house to ensure that I can be productive throughout the day.
This to-do list board will be placed in a visible location in my room to motivate me to complete my work and create a new daily routine. I usually keep a planner or use the sticky notes on my computer to track my work. However, I noticed that in quarantine, I seem to ignore my tasks and pretend that they do not exist. With a physical board, I think I will be more on top of my work, as I have to reorganize my board either daily or weekly. Also, it will be more rewarding to cross off completed tasks or remove the post-it notes.
I have decided to start using my to-do board this weekend. I wanted to provide a couple of days to add my first set of tasks and see if there were any tasks or sections that I wanted to add to my board before using this prototype. I also want to think of a way to reduce my post-it notes usage, but I also want to have the ability to cross off or remove post-its from the board once I have completed a task. I hope that this to-do board organizes my daily tasks and allows me to manage my time better.
