Category: Tools

Everyone needs useful tools in our daily lives. These tools help us be more productive, more educated, or even more healthy. Some are essential to our work, and without them, we wouldn’t be able to do it with good quality or do it at all.
I want to feature useful tools. Most of them are software, but some may not be. What’s important to me is that they help me write articles for this page, be more organized, track my health, help me be more organized, and do more to rest more.
All of them are my personal choice, and no one is paying me to write about them. I bought or subscribed myself, and there won’t be any promotional links or affiliate links. I was hoping you could read about them, try them, work for you. I’m happy, and more the person who works on it.
If you have a favorite tool that is not on this list, please contact me by email or interact on Twitter. I’m always happy to get new recommendations.
