What tools do you use?
Nowadays there is everything from daily journals of all kinds to all the latest gadgets and computer programs you could want.
The important thing is to find a tool that works for you and that you enjoy using.
I know of a multi-millionaire who uses a simple paper pad to make a daily list where he prioritizes his items and schedules in his times. SImple, but hugely effective, based on his results.
I love writing and I still love using pen and paper. So for me a daily journal works well.
I recently discovered a way to make it even more useful. I set up a lovely antique brass easel on my desk right beside my computer screen. My daily journal is one that folds open and back on itself, so I can set my journal on the easel with today's page facing me. That way I can see at a glance what is on my list to do and what I should be doing next.
It also makes it very handy to grab when I want to add any ideas or to-do items that come along as I am working.
I check off my items as I do them through the day. Any that don't get done get added to the next appropriate day, get deleted or get delegated.
How do you plan your day? Do the tools you use work well for you? Or would it perhaps help to try something different?
