I’m gone back to planning on paper. Again. Since getting the iPad, I moved my projects into a program called Things, which is very good. (And I’ve tried a lot of planning\/time management programs through the years). But something about the process wasn’t sitting right.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The one obvious drawback I can point to is that this setup meant having to turn the computer on first thing in the morning to start my day. “Oh, I’ll just check my e-mail to see if there’s anything that urgently needs my attention. Oh, and look on Twitter. Might as well catch up with my news-feeds…” And before I know it, I’ve slid into my day with no plan. I need a plan.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Yesterday I drew up a new daily planner and a project planner page, then scanned, printed, and bound them into pads. This iteration of the daily page doesn’t have as many spaces on it as the last one because I found the tendency was to put an overwhelming amount of stuff on it. Really, if I achieve three things a day, I should be happy with myself. (Okay, my happiness-with-myself shouldn’t be conditional at all.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Best of all, this system is mine. For some reason, that’s important.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
