My Toolbox

There are many things that help us to be organized and systematic so we can be more effective in what we do. For me, there are some online tools and apps that have helped me. The list of “Tools” I have listed below continues to change as time goes on, but this will give you a good Idea.

These are the tools I use on a regular basis. Under each category, I’ve listed the options in order of my preference.
I have not given much details regarding each one as you will be able to look up its features on the internet. The list below is just the most important features and complications that I have observed. I hope this will be beneficial for those who are looking for ways to be a bit more organized and effective.
