CVS ExtraCare Reminder

I meant to reply sooner, but I wanted to make sure I had actually tried the method before I answered. I spent part of the afternoon testing a couple of approaches, and the simpler one ended up being the most reliable.

What helped me most was doing the same first step every time instead of changing the order depending on how rushed I felt. Once I kept that part consistent, the rest became a lot easier to repeat without thinking too much about it.

I also noticed that taking a short break in the middle kept me from circling back and second guessing everything. Before that, I kept reworking small details and turning a quick task into a long one. Now I just set things out, finish the basic version, and only adjust if something looks obviously off.

If you want, I can write down the sequence I used so it is easier to follow next time. It is not fancy, but it made the whole process feel a lot less annoying for me.

Review and Redeem Now

This notice was sent as a service-style reminder regarding eligible ExtraCare rewards activity. Timely action is recommended to avoid expiration.

I finally figured out a routine that keeps the week from feeling scattered, and it turned out to be less about planning every detail and more about avoiding too many choices at the same time.

I start the night before by setting out whatever I will need first, even if it feels unnecessary. That tiny bit of preparation makes the morning feel calmer, and I am much less likely to get distracted by small side tasks. I also keep a short list instead of a big one because I seem to ignore anything that looks too complicated.

Another thing that helped was grouping similar chores together instead of jumping from one kind of task to another. It stops me from wasting energy restarting my focus over and over. I still leave space to be flexible, though, because forcing the whole day into a rigid schedule never really works for me.

If you try it, give it a few days before judging whether it fits. It felt awkward at first, but then it started to click without much effort.
