When your head is full, the day feels scary. Writing things down helps a lot.

ChatGPT is a free tool you type to, like sending a text. You tell it what is on your mind.

It will turn your jumble of thoughts into a tidy little list. Then you just do one thing at a time.

Try this
  1. Open ChatGPT and start a new message.
  2. Type everything you need to do today, even messy.
  3. Ask it to make a short, ordered to-do list.
  4. Pick the first thing and start there.
A message you can copy

Here is what is on my mind today: [list a few things]. Please turn this into a short, clear to-do list. Put the most important things first.

Paste it into ChatGPT, then change the words in brackets to fit you. It opens in a new tab, so you will not lose this page.
