How do yall remember to turn in assignments or when you get them. I don’t like writing things down so I rely on my memory but that never helps. I’m a 7th grader and I honestly need help, any suggestions would be nice. Please and thank you!🤍🤍🤍
If you don’t like writing down use voice memo. I like to use google keep to dump all my thoughts and things in
Hello ! I remember when I thought that everyone at work just seemed to always recall everything important (the day / hour / subject of the next meeting, etc.) : I was wondering why they had such a good memory and I didn’t !… 😱😭 Well… Then I just realized they didn’t have a better memory (well maybe short-term 😅) just a better organization system ! So I’m sorry if you don’t like writing things down but I think you’re gonna have to at some point… What I do when someone is asking me to do some task for a precise day is : - making myself a task on an app OR programing an alarm for a time later that day when I know I will be able to calmly think again about this task, and determin how I should ago about completing it on time - if this task is « going to a meeting », or if I’m just taking an appointment with someone (hair salon, my boss, date with friends) : I set up an event on my Calendar app, where I note ALL the relevant details (title of the event, but also appointed time and duration, WHERE it will take place, how much time it will probably take me to go there, AND I ask the Calendar app to send me 2 reminders : 1 week before the appointed time, and 2 days before ; that way, I’m not blindsided - or less…!!) A more general advice (that I learned from Cal Newport and his great podcast « Deep questions », who kinda saved my life at some point…) : - always having something to take notes on (a little notebook or your Notes app on your phone or the great « brain dump » of THIS app !) - always setting aside some 10 mn at the end of the day to look up your tasks and organise them I hope that will be helpful for you… Bye !
