Manage Your Life
I always feel like 24 hours a day isn’t enough to do all the things you have to do. I mean, there’s the clothes to wash, iron, and fold; food to cook; house and car to clean; movies to watch; blogs to read; social networks to update; places to go to; friends to meet; errands to run; and of course, self to maintain and pamper. Whew! That was a long list =)
Truth is, I just wanted to list all the things I have to do so I won’t forget and I can plan ahead. You see, listing your tasks is a simple way organizing your life. You can use a pen and paper to do this, but you can also opt to take advantage of today’s technology.
Hubby and I opted for the latter in managing our medical, sports, and travel appointments. We chose Google Calendar because allows us to:
- View several calendars at once — upon approval, you will be able to immediately see your friend’s calendar. You can also view Philippine holidays and daily weather, etc.
- Invite people with Google accounts to appointments — once they accept, the appointment will also be added to their Google calendar; think online version of Microsoft Outlook
- Receive appointment reminder either through pop-up, email, or SMS
- Add tasks
- Sync with iPhone/iTouch via Internet (no need to attach the phone via USB)
- Create appointments via iPhone/iTouch

Actually, the best part of Google Calendar is… it’s free! So, isn’t Google hot?! I strongly recommend that you guys start managing your life by managing your appointments and tasks, this way, you are able to plan ahead and make use of time efficiently.
