Time Management
Hi! Does anyone have advice on how to manage your time well or time management systems and recourses (app, etc.) to help one (with ocd) stay on top of daily tasks, goals, etc.?

Hi! I’ve noticed what works for me is just using alarms on my phone. If I have a specific task I want to get done, I’ll set a timer for 30min and do it until the alarm goes off. Then I’ll set a 10-15min timer to take a break and when that one goes off I get back to work. (I also have sooo many alarms set for specific times and have them all scheduled for every day and just turn them on/off when I need them)

@Karate.chopper Hi! This is really helpful. Thank you! I’ve tried doing a version of this, but I just have trouble being consistent. But i’m going to try it again

@jay101 I wish you luck!! Sometimes if the task is something I really don’t want to do, I like to try and turn it into a game (example: laundry, I’ll ball my clothes up and try to see how many I can make into the basket & keep a lil point system)
