Tell me yours, and we might unearth another new must-have tool & help each other!
One of my absolute favorite tools of all time is Todoist. At a first glance, it looks simple but, similar to Text Blaze, the only limit to the uses for it is your own imagination. I use it to create daily to-do lists, track university deadlines, and manage long-term projects. It's incredibly useful if you use it for more than just simple to-do lists.
I can also vouch for Hemingway. It's truly an awesome tool that many people don't know about. I love using Hemingway when I'm writing long pieces.
I've used Todoist in the past, it's pretty cool. I've switched to apple notes in my phone for my to-do lists after that, and haven't explored newer to-do list apps in a while!
Of course Text Blaze & Data Blaze! I mean, c'mon! Seriously though, besides these two, I swear by MS Power Automate. I could write a novel as to why but I will just say that the value it has brought to my teams and our organization with regard to how we efficiently and effectively serve both customers and colleagues is on a level we've never experienced. Hit me up if you wanna talk more about it!
