  • The best thing I did for myself is to make a place for all important things like my keys, watch, medicine, moisturiser etc. if I catch myself putting it down somewhere that isn’t the right place then I make the effort to put it in the right spot. For example: my keys, they have a hook by my door and one pocket they live in. They are never anywhere but those two places or in my hand and if I ever go to put them down and think to myself “Ill remember to move them later” I say to myself “of course you won’t remember, move them now”.

    It’s helped massively and now I’m used to it it’s not hard to do. Of course I don’t always catch myself and do lose stuff but it happens less now.

    Also trying to keep on top of clutter on sides, that way it’s easier to spot the thing that I’ve put down. Don’t get me wrong I have piles and piles of clutter that I will about once a year go through and have a clear out but I keep that stuff on shelves etc, not somewhere I would put down my phone for example




  • I used brilliant for a while to see what it was like and tbh if you have the time to use it regularly and the money to spend, I thought it was worth it. I just don’t have the time to make it worthwhile right now.

    I learnt a lot in a short space of time and it kept my attention well, which can be difficult given I have adhd.

    I’m sure there are better, more in depth, apps or websites somewhere but I found the game like interface to be much better for me and much more interesting


  • I work in early years. Yes babies have a great understanding of body language and facial expression long before they can talk to communicate.

    Young children are actually far more intelligent than most people give them credit for. Just because they can’t communicate it the same language as us yet doesn’t mean they don’t know what they’re doing.

    If they didn’t understand body language, how would they bond with people? And people bond back with them? Not to be insulting, but it’s like with pets. We can build bonds with them because we learnt to understand each others body language even though we don’t speak the same language
