VoodooPad Zen Time Management Part 1: Introduction
It’s been Field-Tested
Five years ago the company I worked for asked me to start using a Franklin-Covey Planner. Like many others, I found that using a time management system helped me get more stuff done.
It has been five years since that first Franklin Planner and I have experimented with many different tools and systems since then. But for the last couple of years, my system has mostly remained static. I still try out new tools all the time, but nothing sticks.
Last week, Apple announced that Leopard will include a system-wide to-do system. I am a sucker for operating system-level functionality, so I expect I’ll be tinkering with my time management system heavily after this gets released. This means that now is a good time to describe my current system that has already been field-tested for years.
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be blogging about the time management system that has stuck with me through thick and thin and that, despite by best efforts, no new tool has been able to usurp.
