my philosophy is writing everything out so i have to rely on my brain to remember as little as possible. i have a planner for scheduling and a tiny notebook for thoughts and written to do lists. ticktick is for my digitial to do lists, which i organize for homework and individual projects and just things happening in my day. i got it because other apps asked too much of me and this one lets me pick the color it is and simply make lists with a nice ding sound when you check something off. amazing feeling.
I also love setting a reminder so an alarm literally goes off at me when something needs to happen. again, i try to make these things do the work of remembering for me
