I didn't. Which is why everyone involved must hate me.

TootSweet @lemmy.world I stress on these tasks rather than completing them because if I don't have these tasks to stress about, I'll have to stress about the much worse tasks waiting just behind them in the queue.

3 1 Replycountrypunk @slrpnk.net OP Same, and if I don't have tasks to stress about I suddenly am confused and have no idea what to do with my life and get bored.

What if I come close to finishing it just to add more work?
What worked for me was to have someone hold me accountable for missing work
8 0 Replyfrickineh @lemmy.world Hmm that might be why I'm fine at my actual job but awful at doing anything productive at home. I told my coworker I needed someone to come "help" me by basically sitting in my living room judging all the laundry piles. Like, just come over and talk shit and redirect me when I get distracted every 12 seconds.

I also enjoy the task when I'm involved so I both loved my workplace, had fun, did productive shit and earned a wage
Working at home is hell for me, Starbucks is the next best place in the stead of a workplace

3 0 Replycountrypunk @slrpnk.net OP Help I can't do the task
3 0 ReplyQualifiedKitten @lemmy.world Thanks! Just reminded me that I had a relatively simple task to do that would have been weighing on my mind at 2a.
Now the other tasks on my mind are "perpetual tasks" or otherwise aren't so simple to complete, like finding a new job. So uh, how do I stop stressing about those tasks?

I do drugs about it but I'm not a perfect role model.
At least they're prescription so there's an air of legitimacy.

xmunk @sh.itjust.works I know it's a meme but that's terrible advice.
If you finish all the tasks most employers will just give you even more tasks for next week.

2 0 Replyxmunk @sh.itjust.works Still bad advice, imo. Unless you work at a great job you tend to accumulate responsibilities until you can't handle another one.
Powering through tasks just raises the future expectations of management.
