However, I have learned that Adderall helps with focus, it doesn't fix lack of organization. I still need to work on that.

I know there have been some ADD threads here before. But does anyone have experience with how to organize yourself with all this new found focus? It's pretty shocking. I no longer get sidetracked by listening to the conversations of others in the office. I no longer forget what I was working on. I do however focus so much on one particular project that I will work on it all day, and forget about the 10 other small projects/things I was hoping to get done during the day.
