The Joy of a Managed Day with Taskito

I have been in search of a perfect task manager to help manage my chaotic schedule. I wanted a task manager that could integrate with a calendar as a single tool. Most task managers are great list makers but the tasks don't easily find their way to my daily planning. There should be a more natural way to schedule work through tasks.

There is a fine line between faith and presumption. We live by faith and not by sight. We also don't put God (or ourselves) to a foolish test. We protect ourselves to the best ability and trust God for his help. There is always two sides, two

Three Reasons Why You Should Journal [1 Minute Inspiration]

Journaling helps create an anchor for your memories and what you learn. You can have more insight about your life and it can be captured. Journaling is an instructor as few of us have a mentor or counselor. How fast you grow depends on the amount of learning from mistakes and problems you can solve.
