I started wanting toget my school done really quickly and my mom was just like well, I've gotto take care of your sisters too, so I'll just write down a list of all thethings that you have to do and then you can do them whenever you wantbecause I was I was pretty like a self-starter and so yeah, she would writeit down the night before and then in the morning I would wake up sometimesaround like,Four or five I'm not not too much later than that though and Iwould get working I would stop for a little bit to have breakfast with thefamily while the rest of the my siblings went to school and stuff and thenI get back to it and I'd finish my school for the day like nine or ten inthe morning and then I have the whole day to do whatever I wantedunfortunately at the time lots of what I wanted to do was hang out on thecomputer playing games and stuff which are not proud of but it like Ichanged a huge amount during that time.I became much more of a self-starter and and a very task-oriented.Andgoal-oriented it made a huge impact on my life, so yeah, I was just superproductive so I've been thinking about that and just kind of wanting tohave that level of productivity back and so for this year.I'm gonna be I I have a notebook that I'm gonna be using to write down whatI'm supposed to do and the next day just like my plans what the things thatI want to make sure I do and it's not like super planned out or anythinglike not the time of day necessarily but it's just like here the thingsthat I'm going to accomplish tomorrow.And I've tried it the last couple days and I haven't been like working oranything it's been like family stuff but it's been working pretty great sothat's what I'm gonna be trying to do.
