More Guidelines for Planner Pad organizer users…. Your Planner Pad organizer starts at the top. The top section of the two pages showing your week is where you load the funnel. It is where you pour-in all your ideas and lists. It is the place to write things you need to do, things you would like to do, and things you may never do. You know, it seems the really good ideas make only one trip through your mind. That is why it is important to capture your thoughts before they are lost or forgotten. Time management experts refer to this process as making a “master list”, a simple collection of ideas, reminders, and things to do. This common “master list” is vertical with endless notations, one under the other on a legal tablet, with little regard for importance or urgency. Your latest million dollar idea gets buried somewhere in there with the common everyday tasks. The difference between the common vertical “master list” and the top section of your Planner Pad organizer is that it lies on its side. Your listings on the Planner Pad organizer are horizontal. The benefit of being horizontal is that you are less likely to bury the important with the unimportant. It is easy to feel busy with the common vertical master list – perhaps, even feel “overwhelmed”. It looks like you have so much to do, however, effective time management does not mean you actually do everything on your list. Good time management is choice management. Your “master” to do list is virtually endless and for the active person, things yet to do always exceed what you have done. Yet, our time is limited. So we have to choose…make decisions about where and how we spend our time wisely. Good time management is choice management, and your Planner Pad organizer will help you make better choices. Having your Planner Pad organizer “master list” horizontal (the top section of your Planner Pad organizer) you can better see the types of activities you are involved in. Now, it is easy to group things that go together. You create simple, shorter lists by category. This is the first important step in prioritizing your week.
