as a way of remembering things like shoes i might want, an article i want to read, a gift to buy someone, or a class i want to sign up for.
(do i leave them open for weeks/months without looking at them? maybe! but i’ll eventually remember to go through them………)

I've tried using todo lists (physical and apps) but, as soon as they're not in front of my face, I forget about them. Lately I've been putting Everything in my calendar app. I have a widget on my phone home screen that tells me what's next so I always see it and regularly tap it to see what's on the day and the rest of the week.
It's not just appointments. I'm also putting tasks and reminders on there which are typically "todo" list things. Centralized, just a glance away.
It's also becoming an aid for journaling? I'm putting in shit just to remind myself what I've done socially and privately throughout the week.

I keep a dumb amount of notes in Evernote. When I’m out and someone tells me about something cool, I often put it there, but when it’s something really good I drop the link in my calendar for a time when I know I’ll be more idle. Helps me tons with keeping my circle full.

it’s hard to explain it all briefly but i organize it by general domains (see screenshot).
Home has features like to-do lists, my wishlist, gift ideas for family/friends, favorite shopping sites, movie watchlists, recipe links, misc notes.
Grad School has general school-related to do lists, plus my entire class schedule/assignments due each week. i also have linked pages for places to apply for jobs after i graduate and paperwork i need to submit for licensure.
Counseling is basically a folder of resources to use once i start practicing, including a spreadsheet page that has a referral list of my peers with contact info, specialties, etc.
Projects has all my writing, craft ideas, other scraps, etc.
Swipe File is a bunch of random websites and other materials i’ve gathered over the years that are inspiring or just fun to mess around with.
it’s definitely time-intensive to set it all up and organize your life/brain on Notion but it’s so worth it once you’re done, and then you can continue optimizing it forever as priorities change. i recommend doing the initial setup on desktop cuz it’s less overwhelming to see the layout of everything and can move things around more quickly.

get a giant pop and a salty snack and lay back in a cushy chair for a couple hours and see whatever you want without anyone else in your ear until you’re ready to discuss!!!
