Examples Of To Do Lists
- Personal: for tasks that only apply to your personal life and are somewhat time sensitive.
- Work: for work related tasks. You may want to create sister lists if your work is multifaceted. For instance: Work > Sales and Work > Acquisitions.

The To-Do List vs. The Calendar
The to-do list is for tasks and always requires actions to be completed. Meanwhile, the calendar is for events that happen by themselves, and may require participation.
Some events require tasks for a satisfactory completion, but those are tasks associated with the event, not part of the event. For instance: A meeting may require the task of reading, but the meeting is happening anyway.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
