Does anyone have any pointers for staying on task while underemployed?

1. I hand-write a list in the morning. Even the piddly, stupid stuff goes on it as well as the enoyable

things I may have wanted to do. Library trip, look up interesting recipe, grocery store, work items, laundry, dry cleaning, meetings with new clients... whatever. Its all on there. Then I systematically, manually, cross off the tasks as they get done throughout the day. If I don't get an item done, it goes to the top of the list for the next day.

Been doing this for 25 years and its what works for me. I know a lot of people use their electronics to track their tasks but I like the old fashioned look of that list getting scribbled off. Good luck!
