× Listing things to buy is very essential specially when you are a busy person like me.
✓ Listing things to buy is very essential especially when you are a busy person like me.
The word 'specially' is used to mean 'in a special manner', but the correct word here is 'especially', which means 'particularly' or 'above all'. This is a common confusion between the two adverbs.
× Specially the job requires a lot of prioritization of tasks.
✓ Especially the job requires a lot of prioritization of tasks.
Again, 'especially' should be used instead of 'specially' to indicate emphasis or particular importance in this context.
× Being a nurse. Making a note. Is very important in order to stay organized and focused.
✓ Being a nurse, making a note is very important in order to stay organized and focused.
The original sentence is fragmented into incomplete sentences. Combining them into one sentence with appropriate punctuation improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
× I think it's simply because they have a short memory to remember whatever they need to do and what the things they need to buy in the groceries.
✓ I think it's simply because they have a short memory to remember whatever they need to do and the things they need to buy in the groceries.
The phrase 'what the things they need to buy' is incorrect. It should be 'the things they need to buy' to avoid redundancy and incorrect pronoun use.
× It's both actually work.
✓ Both actually work.
The phrase 'It's both actually work' is ungrammatical. The correct form is 'Both actually work' to indicate that both options function well.
× But if I'm doing my online shopping or making a list to go to the grocery. Are usually use my phone.
✓ But if I'm doing my online shopping or making a list to go to the grocery, I usually use my phone.
The original sentences are fragmented and missing the subject in the second sentence. Combining them and adding the subject 'I' corrects the sentence structure.
