Apart from the old Roman practice of starting each month on a new moon, there's some pretty amazing things you can do with calendars. For example, a calendar gives you the marvellous ability to organise your time and plan future events. (Can you imagine life without a calendar?) Here's 12 amazing ways you can use a calendar right now:
1. Make appointments and schedules. Plan future events, look into past dates and generally know where you stand in the big scheme of things!
2. Always remember friends or family birthdays. After all, you've written them all down carefully in your calendar, right?
3. Know when a full moon is hovering - so you can prepare for any weird or unusual behaviour that might spring up!
4. Keep track of office essentials. Use a desktop calendar on your computer to keep track of office essentials and set reminders, etc.
5. Plan for medical needs such as taking tablets or medicine at a certain date or time.
6. Helpful for pregnancies - a pregnancy or birth calendar lets you plan for all situations and gives you essential alerts if needed.
7. Know which day and month it is. Obvious I know, but try to live without knowing the date and see what happens!
8. Express your love. Create a wall calendar that has your own family photos or children photos on it - looks great and everyone will want one!
9. Record your baby's development. Write in details as your baby grows - weight, height, size etc. (A birth diary is also good for this).
10. Know schedules at a glance. Sometimes you need to know when those exams are coming around, or when un-missable sports days and events are on!
11. General time management. Manage your time so you know if deadlines are looming and when those essential 'can't miss' meetings are on.
12. Make your own calendar. A calendar is the perfect tool to promote a business or a service. Everyone can use a calendar, so when you create an attractive designed calendar and offer it for free you may find people can't get enough of it!
Well that's just 12 ways to make use of a calendar. There's plenty more too! You can make school calendars (great projects for students), create a commercial calendar and sell it online, promote your photographic folio, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. Let me know how creative you get!
