We live in a world where staying on top of tasks is like juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle. There’s always something on your plate, whether it’s work, activities, personal errands, or hobbies you’re trying to keep up with. But what if there was a way to lighten the load and make your daily life flow effortlessly?
The Challenge
Let’s say you find yourself bouncing between multiple apps, manually transferring information, and repeating the same mundane tasks every day. You want to be more productive and focus on the more important aspects of your life, but you spend too much time managing your tools instead of letting them work for you.
Your work-life balance is often interrupted by the constant need to manage different tools and update information across various platforms: keeping personal and professional calendars aligned, tracking accomplishments, and ensuring your files are backed up across platforms. Wouldn’t you need a solution that could connect your favorite apps and make them work together?
How to Automate Your Daily Life with IFTTT
As they say, “Work smarter, not harder”, and these three automations done with IFTTT will do just that:
1) Syncing Calendars and To-Do Lists
Whenever a new event is added to your Google Calendar, it gets added to your Notion to-do list. By integrating the two, all Google Calendar events automatically appear in your Notion workspace, allowing you to see everything in one place without having to enter things twice.
2) Tracking Work Hours Easily
Whenever you press the Button widget, a new row is added to a Google Spreadsheet, logging your work hours. With just one tap, staying organized has never been easier!
3) Keeping Files Synced Across Platforms
Whenever a new file is added to a Dropbox folder, it is automatically uploaded to Google Drive. This ensures that all your personal files are well-organized and secure on both platforms.
