What do you need to remember in your daily life?

Actually, I have to remember that I have to love myself. I have to take care of myself. As a result, I shouldn't take care of anybody around me except myself, because I'm the most important character in my own life. So that's the point.

× I don't have concentration on the information.
✓ I don't have concentration on the information.
The phrase 'concentration on the information' is awkward; it is more natural to say 'concentration' without 'on' or to say 'concentration on information' without 'the'. However, since 'concentration' is an uncountable noun, the sentence is grammatically acceptable but stylistically could be improved. This is not a strict grammar error under the provided list, so no correction is made.
× Uh, However I can learn mathematical things way better than memorizing texts and I think because this is is due to my knowledge.
✓ However, I can learn mathematical things much better than memorizing texts, and I think this is due to my knowledge.
The original sentence has incorrect conjunction use and redundancy ('this is is'). 'However' should be followed by a comma and not preceded by 'Uh'. Also, 'way better' is informal; 'much better' is more appropriate. The phrase 'I think because this is is due to my knowledge' is awkward and redundant; it should be 'I think this is due to my knowledge.'
× But I remember a dream that I forgot my exam.
✓ But I remember a dream in which I forgot my exam.
The phrase 'a dream that I forgot my exam' is awkward. The correct relative pronoun for a dream is 'in which' or 'where'. Also, 'forgot my exam' is acceptable but 'forgot about my exam' or 'forgot to take my exam' might be clearer. The sentence is corrected for clarity and grammatical correctness.
× I was extremely scared of not to be already on the exam.
✓ I was extremely scared of not being already at the exam.
The phrase 'scared of not to be' is incorrect; after 'scared of' the gerund form 'being' should be used. Also, 'on the exam' is incorrect; the correct preposition is 'at the exam' or 'in the exam room.'
× I shouldn't take care of anybody around me except myself, because I'm the most important character in my own life.
✓ I shouldn't take care of anybody around me except myself, because I'm the most important person in my own life.
The word 'character' is incorrect here; the correct word is 'person' when referring to oneself in this context. 'Character' refers to a role or personality trait, not a person.
× Sometimes I write them in somewhere like notebooks or schedule them.
✓ Sometimes I write them somewhere like notebooks or schedule them.
The phrase 'write them in somewhere' is incorrect; 'in' should be removed. 'Write them somewhere' is correct. 'Somewhere like notebooks' is acceptable as an informal expression.
