Put everything in your calendar. Use notifications sufficiently far ahead to be useful, and have the ability to snooze alerts.
On Android I use Calendar Notifications for greater flexibility with notifications.
For example, for doctor appointments I set the notification for a day in advance. Then I'll snooze it until I need to leave the next day (with extra time for cleaning up, etc).
I look at my calendar all the time. Keep it open on my laptop, month view, so I'm always seeing what my month looks like, what's coming up.
