VIX,

EVEN BEFORE THE STROKE, I ALWAYS STARTED THE DAY WITH A "TO LIST". NEVER FORGOT TO DO ANYTHING, AND IT STILL WORKS.

WHEN I WORKED FOR A LARGE CORPORATION, I WOULD SEPARATE ALL THE PAPERWORK INTO THREE PILES ACCORDING TO PRIORITY. I FOUND DOING THIS WAS NOT AS OVERWHELMING AS LOOKING AT ONE HUGE PILE. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU, SINCE I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF WORK YOU DO.

I REMEMBER RUNNING A BRANCH OFFICE FOR A LARGE COMPANY. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT MUCH PAPERWORK EXISTED. I USED TO GET QUESTIONNAIRES

CONSTANTLY. I IGNORED THE FIRST REQUEST AND THREW THE PAPER AWAY. I DIDN'T ANSWER A SECOND REQUEST EITHER. HOWEVER, IF A THIRD CAME IN, I ANSWERED. YOU WOULD BE AMAZED HOW MANY TIMES ONLY TWO CAME IN.

HAPPY MUDDLING THROUGH.
