Email Important Information To Yourself

by on Oct 26, 2007 | 3 comments

One thing I have been doing for a while which seems to really help sometimes is to email myself random important things I need to remember.

For example, I recently had to change the air filter in my house, but I never can seem to remember the size filter I need. Thankfully, last time I changed my filter, I emailed myself a message with the subject “Air Filter Size” and included the exact size in the message. Now whenever I need to change my air filter, I just search my email for ”Air Filter” and then I have the information. This works very well with my email of choice, Gmail.

Again, this has really helped and sure beats having post it notes or spreadsheets all over my computer to keep track of this information.

    I do this a lot especially when I find stuff at the end of the day and I want to follow up on the next day(or whenever). Or I see an article I like somewhere I usually email it to my self.
