× Yes, actually I try my best to make a list because it's helped me to don't forget what I want to buy and. Stick my budget.

✓ Yes, actually I try my best to make a list because it helps me not to forget what I want to buy and stick to my budget.

The original sentence incorrectly uses 'helped' (past tense) and 'to don't forget' which is ungrammatical. The verb 'help' should be in present tense 'helps' to match 'I try'. Also, 'to don't forget' should be 'not to forget' because 'help' is followed by the base form or 'to' plus base form without 'do/does'. Additionally, 'Stick my budget' is incomplete and should be 'stick to my budget' to use the correct preposition.

× Yes I tried before but I realized planning it's not just for me because this just makes me feel stressed and confused so I prefer have no plans.

✓ Yes, I tried before but I realized planning is not just for me because it just makes me feel stressed and confused, so I prefer to have no plans.

The sentence has tense inconsistency and missing infinitive marker. 'Planning it's' should be 'planning is' to be grammatically correct. Also, 'prefer have no plans' should be 'prefer to have no plans' because 'prefer' is followed by 'to' plus verb. The sentence also benefits from adding commas for clarity.

× For me, I think people don't like making list because when they can't complete all the taxes they feel disappointed, so they prefer to let things happen naturally to avoid feeling stressed and pressure by unfinished tasks.

✓ For me, I think people don't like making lists because when they can't complete all the tasks they feel disappointed, so they prefer to let things happen naturally to avoid feeling stressed and pressured by unfinished tasks.

'Making list' should be 'making lists' because 'list' is countable and plural is needed here. 'Taxes' is incorrect in this context; it should be 'tasks'. Also, 'pressure' should be 'pressured' to correctly function as an adjective describing the feeling.

× I'd rather do make a list on paper instead on my phone because I found out I like traditional way to do everything.

✓ I'd rather make a list on paper instead of my phone because I found out I like the traditional way to do everything.

The phrase 'do make' is incorrect; 'I'd rather' is followed directly by the base verb 'make'. Also, 'instead on my phone' should be 'instead of my phone' because 'instead of' is the correct prepositional phrase. 'Like traditional way' needs the definite article 'the' before 'traditional way'.

× It makes me focus better and organize my priorities.

✓ It helps me focus better and organize my priorities.

While not strictly a preposition error, 'makes me focus' is less natural than 'helps me focus' in this context. Using 'helps' better conveys assistance in focusing and organizing priorities.
