Remember the people you mean to keep up with
People and notes
Keep notes on the important people in your life, in one list you can actually maintain.
Birthdays and reminders
Track birthdays and set reminders so a date does not pass unnoticed, especially when you are living away from family.
Check-ins you can look back on
Log interactions and check-ins, and keep a simple history so staying in touch is intentional, not left to memory.
