That&#8217;s me right there. I used to think I was good like that! No need to write down what I need done &#8211; of course I would remember. How wrong I was.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to the new me. The joy of my phone beeping to remind me that it&#8217;s almost time to stop my present task and move on to a new one is sheer bliss. The amount of work I have been able to get done in the times that I have started to use a planner <em>that works for me<\/em> is amazing. I just wonder where my planner has been all my life.<\/p>\n<p>Are you the way I used to be? You think you&#8217;ve got it all figured out without a planner? You need to think again! Believe me, your planner is closer than you think.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s Tip, as I am sure you can already guess is:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3>Use A Planner<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The kind of planner you choose is entirely up to you though. You can decide to go the traditional way of Paper planners or you can use digital planners.<\/p>\n<p>I love the digital ones because I love digital stuff &#8211; period. It&#8217;s your choice and it depends on what you prefer. I still use paper and pen to gather my thoughts together though and then, I put the stuff I have planned on paper into my digital calendar.<\/p>\n<p>The most important part of using a planner is <strong><em>to use it<\/em><\/strong>. If it won&#8217;t work for you because you don&#8217;t like your choice, then there&#8217;s no point to that. I have gone digital because I realize my kind of person, I can get engrossed in doing something great that I love that I end up forgetting to move on to the next great thing. So, you need to make sure that you get a planner that works for you, your kind of person and your lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>I use <a href=\"https:\/\/evernote.com\/evernote\/\">Evernote<\/a> to capture my thoughts if I suddenly remember something that I forgot to do, or someone tells me to do something and I don&#8217;t want to forget. I then transfer this information to google calendar to schedule it into my day. I use Google calendar for every bit of my day. It helps me to stay productive. Every part of my day I put on that calendar because I will not remember to open a planner if it wasn&#8217;t a digital one!<\/p>\n<p>Can you relate? Have you used planners before? Did that work for you? What kind of planner do you use? Please share your thoughts with me as I am always looking for what&#8217;s working for people so I can go use them too.<\/p>\n<p>Remain awesome<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Think your brain is magnetic and you&#8217;ve got things all figured out?
