I am writing this through a translator. Dude, thanks to you, I passed the test perfectly and was able to go to university. I didn't have the knowledge to take the test at all, so I started all over again. It was new to me, and it was difficult to start something new and overcome myself. Thanks to you, I was able to study. I sat with you and studied the entire school curriculum. Thanks to you and your videos, I was able to become more productive, and the guy who studied poorly was able to pass the test better than anyone in the class. Thanks to you, I was able to change for the better. Thank you so much, dude ^-^.

[@PoppyCemar-i5c]

I would think that's not the healthier nor productive way to live, it's sure not a bad use of the brain power, but it's destined to a pointless loop of productivity searching. That searching will take you paradoxically to the opposite, the amount of to do lists will damage you memory because it's not exercising it, you'll be using it only to remember to look all those to do lists. Not saying there's a lack of discipline, instead there's too much reaching ocd levels, which can lead to an automated way of live that can affect cognitive sides of brain. Having all those systems implemented means every time you have or want to do something, you'll have to integrate them to all the implementations, and it would kill so much potential of flexibility, which is one of the most powerful aspects that the brain can have. Just an opinion of mine after doing and living a similar situation, you can achieve all that you want and more (and would dare to say that can do it even better) without having to implement such amount of things to your daily live.

[@TobiasRebentisch]

generally you are right, this wont work for 95%+ because its too complicated. But if you happen to be in the situation where you can allocate your time very freely and have very little social responsibilities this can work.

I developed an application that takes care of all my task scheduling for me. It’s a simple, unobtrusive little box tucked away in the corner of my desktop. Whenever something comes to mind, I just type it in, and it vanishes-no fuss. The next morning, my entire day's schedule is ready, organized and waiting (as well as week's schedule and month's schedule). All I have to do is follow it. It’s like having a personal assistant that frees up my mind and lets me focus on getting things done.

This is unsolicited advice but I highly suggest either now or when you move to a more rural area to buy a motorcycle. Nothing sporty just a reliable Honda or something comfy.
