Ive recently finished university , dont always have a lot of things to do, so as a result of this I plan out days and create lists to occupy myself , to stop me from feeling upset , bored and to have something to do . I do find keeping myself organised and creating lists can be quite good for me as normally it does help occupy myself and fills up time seen as though I only work twice a week however a lot of the time I become preoccupied with getting stuff on my list done and it can disable me a little and I do feel frustrated.I know the majority of things on my lists I don't really need to do , I just find myself planning things in advice as the people I spend time with are unorganised so it makes me want to be organised .Im just wondering if there are ways of keeping occupied , refraining from having a list or other strategies to writing lists so that I can still be organised , occupied but always happy with myself as opposed to feeling frustrated .

Yes as Wise owl say's, visiting elderly relatives is a nice idea, surprise them with a nice meal that you have cooked and listen to their life stories so you can pass them on to future children you may have.
Life does not always have a map and sometimes the universe knows better and has surprises. Be awake and 'feel'rather than ticking the box. Happy adventures, that is what life is about, an unknown journey.

reader, anonymous, writes (27 August 2019): You should be working on getting a full-time job to fill your idle-time. You can also do volunteer-work to put that energy to good use and benefit those needing help at the same-time. Keep updating your resume and following-up on your job-applications.
You should also use free-time for exercise and meditation. It teaches you how to discipline the mind without programming yourself like a computer or a robot. You might be a little OCD, and it might help to get tested for that.
I might also recommend that you touch-base with your relatives. There are always older neglected family-members who could use someone to run errands, or keep them company. They offer great advice; because they are a very valuable resource for wisdom and family-history. They'll take your mind off your lists for awhile. Even another part-time job will keep you busy, and off your to-do lists.
