× Since I remember when we were shopping with my father, we always make a list for our shopping and nowadays when I go to grocery store or shopping mall or etcetera, I always make a list for what I want or need.
✓ Since I remember when we were shopping with my father, we always made a list for our shopping and nowadays when I go to the grocery store or shopping mall, etc., I always make a list of what I want or need.
The verb 'make' should be in past tense 'made' to match the past time frame 'when we were shopping'. Also, 'grocery store' needs the definite article 'the' because it refers to a specific place. 'Or etcetera' is redundant; 'etc.' alone suffices. 'Make a list for what I want or need' is better expressed as 'make a list of what I want or need' because 'list of' is the correct collocation.
× Yes I do because it has been helping me to reduce my stress during work day and also help me to helps me to know what's the other task and where am I in this path.
✓ Yes, I do because it has been helping me reduce my stress during the workday and also helps me know what the other tasks are and where I am on this path.
The phrase 'help me to helps me to know' is redundant and incorrect; it should be 'helps me know'. 'Work day' should be one word 'workday'. The sentence structure needs correction for subject-verb agreement and clarity. 'Where am I' should be 'where I am' in indirect question form.
× I think that maybe they don't know how to write a list or they don't like it because it seems to them that it's very most it's very waste of time, so they rather just do the work without any ordinary.
✓ I think that maybe they don't know how to write a list or they don't like it because it seems to them that it's mostly a waste of time, so they would rather just do the work without any order.
The phrase 'very most it's very waste of time' is incorrect; 'mostly a waste of time' is correct. 'Rather' should be preceded by 'would' to form 'would rather'. 'Without any ordinary' is incorrect; likely intended 'without any order' or 'without any organization'.
× To be honest, it depends on the situation which I might know the tasks already or I just heard it.
✓ To be honest, it depends on the situation; I might already know the tasks or I might have just heard about them.
The original sentence is awkward and unclear. 'I just heard it' is vague; 'heard about them' is clearer. Also, the sentence needs restructuring for clarity and correct preposition use.
