An important aspect of PKM is stimulating the right habits and reminding yourself to attend to a particular thing at the appropriate time. For example, you might want to remind yourself of some of the following recurring events such as:

• when to exercise

• when to pay the bills
• when to water your plants
• when you should study
• when you need to take medicine
• when a proposal, project deadline or assignment is due
• when an important anniversary is happening
