how to organize your life with google suite

Having this calendar in my head at all times helps me keep track of things 99% of the time. If you have this too, you definitely get what I’m saying, haha, but if you don’t, I probably sound insane.

And each year’s layer lines up with the year where it coordinates with my number line. It never changes, and there are different “layers,” one for the week (+ a clock for minute-by-minute updates) and one for the year. And for spacial, I have, literally at all times, a calendar in my head. I see an entire number line in my head… whenever I think of a number (age, weight, price, temperature, etc.) I see where it is on the line. (When my parents informed me they did not have a calendar in their head, I pretty much started googling things like “I see a calendar” and stumbled on this whole thing.) I think the number form synesthesia is why I have always been so good at math and can make strangely accurate guestimates (like how much a cart of groceries will be). It’s pretty common, so there’s a good chance you have some variation of it or know someone who does. It’s basically a kind of synesthesia (if you’re unfamiliar, it’s where brains associate two different senses, so someone might smell a number or see an image with a sound). It’s actually something that I assumed everyone had until I tried explaining it to my family one night at dinner and they looked at me like I had four heads. I do want to preface this whole post by explaining one weird quirk. I’ve experimented with different systems over the years, but this is what I’m doing– and what works best– for me right now.

There is often no one else to pick up the slack or to catch a mistake or to remind me to do something. As a self-employed person, I find it so so so important to be as organized as possible. Because of this, I’ve perfected a bunch of systems to keep me incredibly organized. So much of what I do on a daily basis happens online.
