Okay, so I messed around with this “Bob Morris” thing today, and let me tell you, it was a bit of a rollercoaster. I’d heard some whispers about it online, so I figured, “Why not?” I’m always up for trying something new, especially if it might make things a little easier, you know?
First, I dug around for some info. Seriously, just searching for “Bob Morris” doesn’t get you very far. Turns out, it’s more of a concept, a way of handling things. It’s all about, like, breaking down tasks and prioritizing stuff. Which, honestly, sounds pretty good in theory, right?
My Attempt at Getting Organized
So, here’s what I did. I grabbed a piece of paper and a pen – yeah, I’m old school like that – and jotted down everything I needed to get done today. Groceries, laundry, a couple of work emails, the usual boring stuff. Then, following what I thought was the “Bob Morris” way, I tried to group them. Like, “urgent,” “not-so-urgent,” and “can wait till whenever.”
- Urgent: Work emails (because, deadlines!), pay a bill that was due yesterday (oops!).
- Not-so-urgent: Groceries (fridge is almost empty, but I can survive another day on ramen).
- Can wait till whenever: Laundry (it’s piling up, but it’s not hurting anyone… yet).
It felt kind of good, actually, to see it all laid out. Like I had some semblance of control over my chaotic life. Then came the hard part – actually doing the stuff.
I tackled the urgent stuff first. Got those emails out of the way, paid that pesky bill. Felt pretty productive, I’m not gonna lie. Then, I decided to reward myself with a coffee break (because, priorities). After that, I hit the grocery store. Came back, put everything away. And then… I kind of lost steam.
The laundry? Still sitting there. That “can wait till whenever” category? Yeah, it’s probably going to stay that way for a while. But hey, at least I got the important stuff done, right? That’s gotta count for something.
So, my final verdict on this “Bob Morris” thing? It’s not magic, but it’s not totally useless either. It definitely helped me prioritize, and I did get more done than I probably would have otherwise. Maybe it just takes practice. Or maybe I just need a stronger coffee. Who knows? I might give it another shot tomorrow. Maybe.
