Resources are always put away. When I’m working on a project my mind can easily recall where a resource is. I can then track it down. Things like specific bolts, old Ethernet plugs etc all get packed up out of the way.
Reminders can never be hidden. Things like my keys and wallet are easy examples, but reminders also include that book I want to read next or that coding project I wanted to work on. Reminders are always front and center on my desktop, they’re right by the door (sometimes on hangers attached to the door in the case of wedding rings) and I don’t forget them because they’re obvious.
So things you need to do? Reminder category. Set calendar events for the things that need temporal reminders, or have to be put away.
I have 2 categories of things:
Resources and Reminders.
