I have ALWAYS struggled with keeping track of appointments and have bought countless planners in the past just to recycle them in October with only 6 weeks filled in…. Pretty sure my wall calendar says April atm come to think of it… BUT I have finally stayed consistent with my apple calendar for over a year and it’s a game changer. When I get an invite or an appointment I pop it in, right then and there, and all my consult appointments get sorted in so I’m not forgetting any!  It’s really reducing my stress just waking up knowing what the day is going to throw at me. It’s a teeeeny thing that most people would thing is so obvious and easy, but for me it’s a 15 year mountain that has finally turned into a speed bump. 🙏

The phone calendar is a game changer for me

I can relate to this! I’m extremely forgetful with dates and times as well, the calendars app by Readdle changed that for me too. I can see my whole month with up to 4 or 5 events per day color coded in month view, it’s really nice. Kudos for you on this! Celebrating with you today!

That’s major! Congratulations!

Same! And even the wall calendar that reads April still too, ha! Apple Watch has helped me a lot to use the calendar effectively without the overwhelm of the full phone and all it’s distractions/stressors.
