What were some of the things you cleaned up yesterday in your digital clutter? I know I have to regularly delete and take care of emails. I unsubscribe often, too.

Today's mission is to start using a calendar! Whether that's on your phone, a big one for your kitchen or office, or a cute planner, it doesn't matter. Get something you use and enjoy using! For me, using the calendar app on my phone works really well. For each appointment or activity, I schedule reminders for myself so I don't forget them! I have reminders set for 15 minutes before the event, for one hour and for one day. This system has consistently worked for me for several years. What works best for you?
