Alarms & Alerts. Just like an alarm clock to wake up, you can set alarms to remind you of tasks and deadlines. Most of us have smartphones at this point, and most of them have handy alarms. You can use those alarms for many things, including reminders!
Calendars. Like alarms, calendars can also serve as reminders. Whether it's a digital calendar or a paper one, calendars can be a great way to keep track of deadlines for contests & activities. (One thing I like to do is to write in when I have one week left until my deadline. That way it doesn't sneak up on me!)
Friends. Ask a friend to remind you! Or join a group that may help with reminders. As a contest/activity host, feel free to post a reminder message post in a forum, in your Bio Block or on your Newsfeed!
Make it a Habit. A great way to remember something is to make a habit out of it. It can take days, weeks or more to create a new habit, so work to remind yourself until it becomes habit.
