Grammar
× I make a list for my works.
✓ I make a list for my work.
The word 'work' in this context is an uncountable noun referring to tasks or job duties, so it should not be pluralized as 'works'. Using 'works' implies multiple separate pieces or creations, which is incorrect here.
× Some people like to be flexible and don't want to be tide down by a list.
✓ Some people like to be flexible and don't want to be tied down by a list.
The phrase 'tide down' is incorrect; the correct past participle form of the verb 'tie' is 'tied'. 'Tied down' means restricted or constrained, which fits the intended meaning.
× Writing things down by hands feels more personal.
✓ Writing things down by hand feels more personal.
The phrase 'by hands' is incorrect; the correct expression is 'by hand' when referring to doing something manually. 'By hand' is an idiomatic expression meaning using one's hand(s) rather than a machine.
× And makes it easier to remember tasks.
✓ And it makes it easier to remember tasks.
The sentence fragment 'And makes it easier to remember tasks.' lacks a subject. Adding 'it' as the subject corrects the sentence structure.
