    So helpful! I hadn't been using Tasks to organize, but I'm realizing it's actually the best way to prioritize my high, medium, and low priority tasks without having multiple to-do lists everywhere on my desk.

    This is such an awesome video! I have been using Google calendar for years, and this taught me things I didn't know about. The goals feature is so useful, as it's more powerful than a simple "habit tracker" because it schedules the activity for you. I am excited to boost my productivity, thank you!
