Heya!

I am happy for you that your found out about your OCD while still in school. It completely sucked for me to figure it out afterward!

As you might experience yourself, OCD can come with a smidge of ADD as well. For me, a lot more of a smidge. A life of “i MUST organize it but where the hell did i put it?” and of “I MUST finish something but i will be damned if i remember what it was”

ick.

all I can say is that GTD is a GODSEND. be picky. make as many contexts as you need. try to keep it within two flips of an organizer or two clicks of a mouse to get to your contexts though. But my best advice is this: use the check lists and the someday/maybe lists as permission. when the compulsion overwhelms you – and thus eats out large chunks of your day – use the someday may be to dump it out of your head. Use the 2 minute rule (can i do it in 2 minutes? No? write it down in a context and move on.) to give yourself permission. GTD gives you permission to let down the compulsion. use it!

best of luck!

Whatever you do, do not take any medication for your “ailment” as the pills will just make things worse. Do you suffer from anxiety and/or panic attacks at all?

Anyways, keep your chin up and do what feels right for you, OK! Best of luck, and we all look forward to hearing more from you! God Bless.

Yeah, it’s the learning to be happy in the now while balancing responsible planning for the future that we all struggle with, isn’t it? That’s why it become so important to be able to change your plans accordingly.

Studies on happiness have shown that 10 years, 5 years — even 1 year in advance — people have a lot of trouble accurately determining what will actually make them happy.

I think a lot of productivity stuff actually supports that, if you look for it. Tim Ferriss certainly doesn’t embrace the idea of planning for retirement.

That’s why I love the lifestyle of a freelancer. It’s scary not knowing what’s next, but I can always do what makes me happy right now. Because that’s one thing I know for sure.
