    I’ve used and enjoyed that kind of setup a while back, but my new favourite is to have something that rotates different backgrounds. macOS has their dynamic wallpapers which you can set to cycle through different ones on a regular basis, which I really like. I still don’t like having any icons, though.

    On Android, I use Muzei to get a different artwork as my background every day. It’s also very nice.



  • My best strategy for dealing with this is leveraging my inability to deal with having any notifications whatsoever on my phone. Hence my strategy is:

    1. Anything that can’t be completed right away gets added to the task list
    2. All tasks get assigned a time, at which point a notification with the task appears
    3. I promised the list I would do it, and I want the notification bar to be clear - this is often enough of a push to get me to remember and do things.

    A great aspect of having an ongoing checklist that you actually respect is that things written down on the list don’t have to be actively thought about - this calms my mind.

    Bonus:

    • If you can’t manage to do it, it’s fine to push it ahead to a later date, if the task allows for it. Learning to forgive myself has been immensely useful for coping with the everyday struggles
