That may sound sad, as if I am a string puppet controlled by a software tool. In fact, migrating my life to Google Calendar has been one of the best decisions I've made. Yes, if anyone looks at my calendar the first thing they'll say is why are you working all the time?! Not only weekday nights but also weekends?! The thing is I have too much stuff I want to do. My calendar helps me get more done in less time. It is not giving me work. It is forcing me to NOT do some things I might have done if I were less disciplined. I timebox myself to get things done on time. Do I always complete my work on time? No I don't. If I can't catch up, it's a sign I have to discard something, and I do it. Do I make time for play? Of course. I put it in the schedule.
Google Calendar is my favourite secretary. He will never forget my wife's birthday. Not that I need him to remind me. If you find this post useful, please like, comment or share.
