Time for New Planner/Agenda Inserts

Despite having access to digital devices (cellphones, tablets, laptops), I still prefer to have my trusty agenda or planner. I personally like making to-do lists and reminders. I feel like some sort of in control and semblance of organization whenever I get to cross out something in my to-do list. Also, just because I’m old-school who prefers pen and paper. Now that we are down to 2 more months before this year officially ends, I already placed my order for my 2017 agenda inserts. I know someone who waits until February to get these because the prices drop right after the new year has passed. I always argue with her that that defeats the purpose of planning ahead. But then again, it always works for her and she said it’s only a month behind.

I use a large drawer sized calendar. I have plans written in months ahead of time and find it easier to keep track of my life.

I also have that one for work. Sometimes I think I overdo it because I also have my work planner. Any help to keep my life organized will be appreciated!

Nothing wrong with having a hard copy. The internet makes it so easy for us to same names, addresses and the like but I like having a hard copy incase something happens and I can't get online.

@Raine38 .....That's for sure. Good to have the hard copy to go by.

And when these devices run out of battery when you are out and about then you're done. Until you can get to a power source.

I've gone digital and everything seems to be on my mobile/cell phone, just hoping I will never lose it lol.

I used to have a palm top, or the Blackberry, even a Treo. I like using it, but when our network does not support its function anymore I have to ditch it. the iPhone is okay, but it's what I was used to. Better back up your mobile!

@Raine38 The newer cell/phones are so much better, easier to use and can store more than we ever been able to. But I guess sometimes you can't beat writing it down on paper, at least paper doesn't crash and you lose everything, good idea to back it up.

I need it because of work and school stuff. I'm hopeless, if I don't start writing things down I will forget what I am supposed to do and when.

I used Daytimer for years but it's pretty expensive, then a small.Filofax. I have already bought an organiser for next year. I couldn't imagine using an electronic device instead.

I have a personal sized day runner. Now I am using a pocket sized LV pm agenda because it fits in all my purposes even the smallish, cross body ones.
