It will be very hard in the beginning but every time you have achieved a few consecutive days of handling your tasks that are on the list well, you can give yourself a little reward.

I have quite severe depression as well, but writing down that list helps setting me little goals, even though I don't always quite achieve them.
How many things do you put on your list? I think part of my problem is that I don't really know what is reasonable.
