The Reminders box is the same box where your calendar items pop up when they are due, so should be familiar to everyone.

Utilize your calendar to schedule tasks. Sit down at your calendar and block out the time for your tasks. If you need to write/send your holiday cards then look at your calendar and schedule it in. In the calendar. Schedule those activities on your calendar. Don't fill your calendar to the max.

Tip #2: When writing for others, be sure to retain copyright. Blog posts and articles can turn into: ebooks, presentations, calendar/tip-of-the-day. I've recently launched my own blog and those articles will reappear there, and one day they may be re-purposed again into a book. Thanks to Clare Kumar of Streamlife.
