1. One of my commitments for 2010 is to regain once again the habit of keeping a weekly planner. There’s just too many dates, errands and work related stuff to remember and honestly the process of inputing it all on the iPhone is an inconvenience since I don’t carry it with me during work hours. Desktop apps don’t work either since I’m not in front of a computer all day and plus, I still prefer the feel of jotting down on paper. What generally prevents me from using a planner is thinking that I need to first find the perfect one but sometimes the best mentality to accomplish something is to stop searching for that perfect tool and choose what will get the job done because the search takes away the focus of doing what you’re suppose to and in my case that’s taking notes. I went with At A Glance’s Planning & Note Taking Hybrid and have been consistent with the pen and paper thus far.
