Mental Health is Overrated

GCal
Have I mentioned how much I love Google Calendar? I have never been more organized in my life. Palm Pilots, handbooks, notebooks, writing on the hand - nothing has worked even remotely as well as this.









I'm currently rocking 16 different calendars on this thing - 9 of my own, and 7 imported. My own:
  • Gary's events
  • Helen's events
  • Friend Birthdays
  • Family Birthdays (I split them up so that my mom could use it without having to see all of my friend's birthdays as well)
  • Exercise Done (Ran 5km in 25 minutes, etc.)
  • Finances (bills paid this day, get paid on that day, etc.)
  • Three calendars for goals - To Do, To Do During Work (essentially work stuff, or stuff that can only be done during 9-5 like calling a bank), and one for longer term goals
The imported ones consist of sports schedules (Esks, Oilers, Olympic Hockey, World Junior, etc.), holidays (Canadian, American, Christian), and those of friends and family (currently my mom and Paul)

The only things I would really like to see would be more colours available for calendars, and a good way to incorporate Jerry Seinfeld's productivity secret, which is intriguing.
