× I'm an outgoing person and I don't like to plan my thing.
✓ I'm an outgoing person and I don't like to plan my things.
The word 'thing' should be plural 'things' because it refers to multiple items or activities that the speaker might plan. Using singular 'thing' is incorrect here as it does not match the intended meaning.
× So when I go for shopping, I buy things that comes in my mind and the things which I really needed.
✓ So when I go shopping, I buy things that come to my mind and the things which I really need.
The verb 'comes' should be 'come' to agree with the plural subject 'things'. Also, 'needed' should be 'need' to maintain present tense consistency. Additionally, 'go for shopping' is better expressed as 'go shopping'.
× I do not make the list of the work I need to do.
✓ I do not make a list of the work I need to do.
The article 'the' is incorrect here; 'a list' is more appropriate because it refers to any list, not a specific one. This is related to article usage but also affects singular/plural sense.
× But like but taking pen and paper and listing it or taking phone, mobile or?
✓ But I don't like taking pen and paper to list things or using my phone or mobile.
The original sentence is incomplete and confusing. It lacks proper structure and clarity. The correction provides a clear and complete sentence expressing the intended meaning.
× People like me don't like me making lists because it is.
✓ People like me don't like making lists because it is.
The phrase 'don't like me making lists' is awkward and incorrect. The correct form is 'don't like making lists' to express a general dislike without awkward pronoun usage.
× It feels like a chore.
✓ It feels like a chore.
This sentence is correct and does not require correction.
× It's already tiresome that we have to do work and additionally, writing it feels like burden.
✓ It's already tiresome that we have to do work and additionally, writing it feels like a burden.
The noun 'burden' requires the article 'a' before it. Omitting the article is incorrect in this context.
× So instead of writing it, I prepare things in my mind.
✓ So instead of writing it down, I prepare things in my mind.
Adding 'down' after 'writing' is necessary to complete the phrasal verb 'write down', which means to record something. Without it, the sentence is incomplete.
× I like to note down on paper though it seems writing on phone is easier, but it's not my cup of tea.
✓ I like to note things down on paper though writing on the phone seems easier, but it's not my cup of tea.
The phrase 'note down' requires an object, so 'things' is added. Also, 'writing on phone' should be 'writing on the phone' to include the definite article. The sentence is restructured for clarity.
× I prefer to write down, list out and do my work according to it. Check.
✓ I prefer to write things down, list them out, and do my work according to it.
The verbs need objects to be clear. Also, the word 'Check' at the end is unnecessary and unclear in this context, so it is removed.
