One of the things my wife taught me, who has poor task management skills, is to manage tasks on paper.
Why is this good?
The bottom line is that the burden of the task is visualized by the number of sheets of paper.
I'm not sure why I thought that, because I have six notes on my desk that clearly need to be organized.
In other words, if you're in that kind of situation, you decide that new stimuli should be suppressed for a while or something like that.
Ultimately, training the eye on one's internal state
If you don't notice, you can't improve.
I don't know why there were six notes, so I sorted them out.

Oh, I thought I'd have to be careful to make my English school appointments so I don't bump into you, but it doesn't seem to be hurting you in any way.
I was having symptoms of blurry vision and difficulty seeing text, so I used a microwave to warm my eyes, and sure enough, I fell asleep and woke up at 23:00!
I woke up and said, "No, isn't this a sleep deprivation debuff?" I was like.

Today is Friday, no English conversation school due to a prearranged meeting.
That's part of the reason I don't get enough exercise, so I'm going to have to take a walk.
I won't even listen to English today.
looking back
I put in two English conversation schools every day for six consecutive days.
To turn on the rusty English switch, you just need to turn it on every day for a week or so.
When I was putting in a skipped schedule, I wasn't a fan of the banter at the beginning of the lesson, but in the end, I'm just looking for a conversation starter, so I don't have to answer the questions as they're asked, I can just take the wheel.
What's the news today?" Or, "I don't have any news, so just ask me what happened in yesterday's lesson."
Or, "I was reading a book today on the subject of X. We need to talk about this."
If the other person perceives me as non-native and speaks slowly, I can have a conversation with them in a two-person conversation while still being fairly interactive.
In other words, conversely, it cannot be understood if
When the other person is speaking at native speed
If you're having a conversation between people other than yourself
If you cannot interrupt (e.g., lectures)
I don't think you can learn listening comprehension in these cases by going to an English conversation school.
I was wondering what I should do, but it seems like a good idea to have independent hearings with several experienced people on this matter.
Conversation Skills
Even if you have a huge amount of thoughts, you need to narrow down what you say because you are limited by the other person's capacity and your own ability to verbalize them in English.
What's your research?
When I was in the doctral course, my major was the visualization of high dimension data.
Currently I'm interested in the visualization of the thought of handreds of people.
For those who don't have background knowledge, this is about the best explanation to start with.
About the Weekly Journal and Diary
There were times when the diary was blank.
Sometimes the diary is full.
After all, the environment that surrounds us changes, so the vessel that accepts it must also change, right?
When I didn't have a diary, my weekly journal was like, "If you don't write at least once a week, you won't know what you did at the end of the year."
When there is a diary, there is a sense of "it's already written."
In the short term, I'm not sure I'll "need" to do without.
But on the other hand, it becomes, "If you don't summarize at least once a week, you'll have too much information at the end of the year!"
This value will not be known until the end of the year, so a short-term perspective overlooks it.
Writing a weekly journal is beneficial
By getting away from the day-to-day perspective and looking at it from the perspective of the weekly review, "Then maybe we should do this." or something like that.
It is not clear what gives rise to this idea.
It's created by the workings of the deep recesses of the brain that are not verbalized.
Ideas generated
Create a Twitter account called JapanPolis and link Polis information with the question text in Japanese.
[The process of creation is a language that can be used to
I took a leisurely 20 minute bath and organized my weekly journal.
Subsequent thoughts
Better to create a hashtag than an account.
The account is
And I was about to write the difference here and said, "No, why don't we just make both?" and then I realized
I was going to write that this is the problem.
Hashtags can connect tweets bottom up, but there is no place to put aggregate

To increase opportunities to experience Polis (and other broad listening technologies) in Japanese
