How I Keep Up

     Hello, readers! I'm back this weekend with a post about how I keep up with week to week activities because it might be able to help some of you who regularly forget things or struggle with time management! Long story short, I have a ton of anxiety and it's something I've realized I struggle with on a regular basis. For me, I worry about forgetting things and not having enough time for things. I worry about making sure I keep up with all my hobbies on a strict schedule. It's kind of weird but as much as it bugs me that I need to write everything down, it's helped me so much! So that's what I want to talk about today. Writing things down and how I go about it. 

     So I'll start off by saying I can't function unless I have everything written down. This includes appointments every so often and even things I need to do daily like eat and brush my teeth. Constant reminders ensure I get everything done I have to do that day. After searching forever I found the app Wunderlist. This lets me right everything down and have my phone remind me. I can set the alarms/notifications to occur once, every other day, every week, every other week, and so on. This means I don't have to write the same thing over and over but my phone will automatically tell me every single day to brush my teeth or feed my bird. Also every other Monday I know I have to get my work schedule and go to life group and Sundays I write my blog. Basically I had to sit down once and plan out a typical week and now my phone tells me what I need to do.

     The other option if you can take care of your normal daily activities alone is to just make a simple to do list for that week. This helps when you have a lot of random little things to do that are easy to forget about. 

     I guess I don't have much else to say about it. Basically I want to recommend Wunderlist to anyone who needs it and wanted to share how making lists and setting reminders has helped me. So, thanks for reading and I hope you'll check back next week!
