I forgot to add that I use a variety of clips and/or flags to bookmark various pages that I need to reference often. This cuts down a lot on the whole "flipping through a lot of pages" thing. Clips...

Although this is an older post, I will take a stab at it in case the original poster is still looking for ideas or new people have the same problems.

Just a little background information: ...

I seldom use coupons, so I don't have that many to keep up with. The ones I do keep are stored in the vinyl pouch in the front of my planner notebook. Before I stick them in there, I write a...

I do it so that I have a record of what I actually attended, whether or not a specific deadline was met, etc. There are some date/time-specific items that get written on the calendar but which I...

My point, exactly. Even though my paper-based system doubles as a vehicle for creative expression, I bet I still spend less time fiddling with mine than many here seem to - based on the descriptions...

I realize that this is an old thread, but I had some time on my hands today and have been catching up on my reading.





I don't rewrite anything. If I send an e-mail message to someone that...

I use a simple form for my lists. It includes a column for me to check "done" and write the date completed underneath. This makes it simple to run my eye over the page and see what still needs to...

I use my paper planner (simple half-sized, 3-ring binder notebook) for everything: personal, related to salaried work, and related to my independent/freelance work. Items related to salaried work...

I agree with Day Owl's suggestion to keep and index each notebook. That's what I do with all of mine, since I never know what's going to be important or what I may want to use again in the future. ...

To separate personal actions and business actions in the same category, you can always use some sort of one- or two-letter code to identify one or both types of actions. You could then set up your...

I have two ways of tracking the various little things that I want to accomplish every day:

Method 1: Choose a stamp (or sticker or whatever) to represent the thing that you want to do; do the...

I could post some photos of my workspace, but I'm afraid that they'd be pretty boring. ;) I'll do it, though, if you really are interested.

I would also like to note that I use the same "clean...

There should definitely be some thought put into where you put things; otherwise, yes, you may find yourself spending too much time taking things out and putting them back again. My cubicle is...

I do not store anything on my desk other than my computer and my phone. The only other things on my desk at any given time are things that pertain to whatever I am actively working on right that...

I agree with jrdew that it's important to make note of those weekly or daily tasks. Since I use Outlook to make my DIY dayplanner, I simply create recurring tasks so that I don't have to write them...

I, too, like my own handwriting and use handwritten labels for my personal files at home. At work, I use computer labels. For those that don't want an extra gadget lying around, may I suggest...

I thought that the successful resolution was the project. In other words, the items on my Projects list are things like, "November Board Briefs published", "Upload a printable stamp design page to...

My e-mail messages fall into three categories:


Requests
FYI
Junk


When I process my e-mail inbox (business or personal), I go ahead and do any request that can be done within two...

How do I manage everything for three boards that each meet once a month plus get all of my other projects done? Any way that I can! :)

Here's a screen shot of the customized Journal...
