Just a quick update for those searching for Goals on their calendar... the goal function was removed by Google since Nov 2022.

do you know of any free alternatives? the only other thing I've found to schedule tasks for you is Motion which is quite expensive

I can't even put into words how much your videos help me. I'm so so thankful for your work. Keep up the good job ❤️❤️
LOVE the categorizing tasks by emojis. EXCELLENT workaround. 💯
The email agenda sounds golden because I always review my calendar the night before an email would be even better. Lots of good tips in this video thanks!
Is so good to get information from another Brazilian, feels more trustworthy and like home, muito obrigada Mariana!!

I enjoyed learning some new tricks to google calendar! It’s changed my life so so much! I didn’t know they had a goals app 😍 definitely be using that!
So helpful! I hadn't been using Tasks to organize, but I'm realizing it's actually the best way to prioritize my high, medium, and low priority tasks without having multiple to-do lists everywhere on my desk.
I use both Outlook Calendar and Google Calendar. The email agenda, shortcut and notion integration was really helpful for me. A Very good, productive video
yours is the first actual tut that i learn new tips from! thank you so much! it's so nice to find a vid that *actually* teaches tips & tricks, not just claims to do so! thank you!
Using color coding for work life balance analysis is BRILLIANT! Thank you
Been using calendar since the last 2 years. It is my holy grail for university. I got my friends hooked on it as well👍🏻👍🏻

Such a good video. So glad to have found this at the start of the year.
This is such an awesome video! I have been using Google calendar for years, and this taught me things I didn't know about. The goals feature is so useful, as it's more powerful than a simple "habit tracker" because it schedules the activity for you. I am excited to boost my productivity, thank you!

Does the IFTT also work the other way (adding an event on Google calendar and seeing it also on a calendar from iOS) ?
It is also possible to link your google calendar with Windows, just by logging in with your Google account. :)
