× Having it helps me to stay organized and helps me to buy the essential items and doesn't wander around the store and buy unnecessary items.
✓ Having it helps me to stay organized and helps me to buy the essential items and prevents me from wandering around the store and buying unnecessary items.
The original sentence incorrectly uses 'doesn't wander' which does not agree with the subject 'Having it'. The subject is singular, so the verb should be 'prevents me from wandering' to maintain subject-verb agreement and correct verb form usage.
× That way I can prioritize the critical ones to do 1st and the non urgent to do later.
✓ That way, I can prioritize the critical tasks to do first and the non-urgent ones to do later.
The original sentence lacks clarity and proper structure. Adding commas and specifying 'tasks' clarifies the meaning. Also, '1st' should be spelled out as 'first' and 'non urgent' should be hyphenated as 'non-urgent' to correctly modify 'ones'.
× Some of them wants to do things spontaneously, at their own time, at their own pace and freedom.
✓ Some of them want to do things spontaneously, at their own time, at their own pace, and with freedom.
The subject 'Some of them' is plural, so the verb should be 'want' instead of 'wants'. Also, 'and freedom' is better expressed as 'and with freedom' to maintain parallel structure and clarity.
