How to Stay on Track

Everyone has a method or a Non method for keeping your life organized. All your planning might be all in your head, it might be in a paper planner, or you could use an online or app solution. No one method is necessarily better than another. It depends on what works best for you. 

I have tried them all. In my head things get lost or ignored or forgotten. Too much stuff already in there. LOL I have used paper planners or calendars as well. I would start a year with great expectations for staying on top of everything and a couple months in I would stop using them. The one app or website, they have both, that I keep coming back to and using again and again is "Remember the Milk". Even the free plan, which I use, has enough features for me. The best in my mind is the way you can set up repeating tasks or days to remember. You can have any task repeat on chosen dates or days. You can also choose to have a task repeat so many days after the last completion of it. You can sort your tasks by their name or due date or set priorities. You can create lists of tasks that keep categories like personal and work separated. There are some premade lists too that will show you all tasks or what is due today or this week.

For myself I have a few lists to help remember birthdays and anniversaries, craft projects I want to do, and a list of national day celebrations or ideas for affiliate link posts. I also have set up repeating household chores on a list that includes watering my house plants once a week and organizing closets twice a year to keep them tidy. There are a lot more things on my household list, and you can imagine the list if you take care of your own home. 

It's that time of year when organizing for the next one becomes a nagging thought in the back of my mind that won't let me ignore it. If you are that way too, you may want to check out Rememberthemilk.com or download the app.

Back with more again soon. 
Take care and stay cozy!
