× I usually prefer to make a list whenever I go for a shopping.

The phrase 'go for a shopping' is incorrect. In English, we say 'go shopping' without the preposition 'for'. This is a common collocation and should be used to sound natural and grammatically correct.
× for example whenever I go for a grocery, I usually prefer to make a list
✓ for example whenever I go grocery shopping, I usually prefer to make a list
The phrase 'go for a grocery' is incorrect. The correct expression is 'go grocery shopping' without 'for a'. This is the standard way to express the activity of shopping for groceries.
× it also helps me to reduce my time.
✓ it also helps me to save time.
The phrase 'reduce my time' is incorrect in this context. The correct expression is 'save time' when referring to using time more efficiently.
× there are sometimes there are a lot of things to do
✓ sometimes there are a lot of things to do
The phrase 'there are sometimes there are' is repetitive and incorrect. Removing the first 'there are' makes the sentence grammatically correct and clearer.
× So for the work I sometime I set a reminder on my phone so I really don't need to.
✓ So for work, I sometimes set a reminder on my phone so I really don't need to.
The word 'work' here is uncountable and should not have 'the' before it. Also, 'sometime' should be 'sometimes' to indicate frequency.
× It totally depends on person.
✓ It totally depends on the person.
The noun 'person' is singular and countable, so it requires the definite article 'the' before it in this context.
× Some people do not prefer to make a lids because they think that they it's a like wastage of time
✓ Some people do not prefer to make lists because they think that it's a waste of time
The word 'lids' is incorrect; it should be 'lists' as per context. Also, 'wastage' is less common; 'waste' is the correct noun here. The phrase 'they it's a like' is incorrect and should be 'it's a'.
× like without making endless or sometime people are like good at memories so they can remind they can remember all the things they need to buy.
✓ like without making lists or sometimes people are good at memory so they can remember all the things they need to buy.
The word 'endless' is incorrect; it should be 'lists'. 'Sometime' should be 'sometimes'. 'Good at memories' should be 'good at memory'. Also, 'they can remind they can remember' is redundant; 'they can remember' suffices.
× I usually prefer to make a list on my phone in notepad because I think that I can't forget the paper at home, but I can't forget my phone,
✓ I usually prefer to make a list on my phone in Notepad because I think that I can't forget my phone at home, but I can forget the paper,
The phrase 'can't forget the paper at home' is illogical; it should be 'can forget the paper at home' and 'can't forget my phone'. Also, 'Notepad' should be capitalized as it is a proper noun.
