Under this circumstance, we usually think of some external methods to reminding ourselves. For instance, we can write down our daily assignments on our notebooks. Every day when we do our work, we can open our notebooks, and ensure which one is done and which one is not.

Another way is to create a reminder on our telephone. Nowadays, we are living in a digital age. And Smartphone is widely used around the world. I believe that it is not difficult for us modern people to create a reminder on telephone.

Then in the pop-up window named as “Untitled – Task”, you could define the specific assignment in “Subject” blank box. Meanwhile, you can set start and due date too. In addition, by ticking “reminder”, you can create a reminder and setting reminding time. Besides, we can the task recurrence in the “Recurrence” Option. You can choose daily, weekly, monthly, yearly and rule concrete time as well.
