Expert Answer

Try to challenge negative assumptions you have about your life. If you're always comparing yourself to others and judging what you're doing, you'll feel more dissatisfied.

Part 3, step 5 of the article advises moving to-dos that did not get done on that day to the calendar. Why is that? Where would we schedule it? For the next day? Other days?

Expert Answer

These are only general guidelines, and not set in stone. Mold your organizational needs to fit your daily life and schedules. If you can’t get through a particular task one day, don’t sweat it. If it is a necessity that it get’s done soon, then look at your calendar to make arrangements to schedule it in. If it is a task that was not very important, maybe just try to let it go. When you hang onto things too long, they can fester and cause you to worry. It does you no good, but increases your anxiety. The goal of organizing is to release all of the things that cause you stress so you don’t feel bogged down.

Expert Answer

Start by identifying things that you’ve wanted to do, but haven’t had a chance to. Then, set some new and fresh goals to achieve the things that interest you. Remain optimistic and have a can-do attitude.
