Additional Ideas for Reminders.
Before going to bed each night, jot down your most important tasks for the next
day and then be sure to follow up on your most critical tasks. If you’re trying to pur-
sue a specific goal, such as losing weight, jot down reminders to alert you through-
out the day, give you encouragement, or display motivational quotes to help you
stay focused on achieving your goal. With the Reminders app, you no longer have
an excuse for forgetting anything unless you forget where you put your iPad.
