The stickies – and the A5 version – don’t include the time tracking boxes and I wish they did, although I can easily add in boxes by hand for the purpose.Įven when you don’t need a tightly scheduled planner, there are always those days where tasks, appointments, and meetings collide, and you end up with a jammed day.
These 4″ x 6″ sticky notes fit into an A6 notebook, or on a larger planner page. There’s an undated 3-month spiral-bound notebook, an A5 spiral-bound version, and an unbound version you can punch for your own Franklin Monarch etc. I’m annoyed at myself for not needing the 3-month bound book because I want one.īut I did buy a couple of packs of the Stickypad ETP. You can also buy ready-to-go printed versions on Amazon.

Seah also has a whole range of free productivity downloads you can find here (including a concrete goals tracker and a NaNoWriMo word count tracker)
Emergent task planner for free#
This graphic is from Seah’s website and you should totally go there immediately and download the planners for free and try them out, and, if you like them, pay him $12 for the dated 2017 version. At the bottom is scratch paper space, or room to write new tasks as they, well, emerge. The left holds an open time scale in 15 minute increments. There’s space for your top 3 tasks and 6 additional tasks, each with four hours worth of 15-min time trackers so you can record how long you actually spend on the work. They’re called the Emergent Task Planner range, and I love these suckers. I think I'll also stand up an entirely separate instance of OneNote for planning out my goals and keep the link on my todoist home somewhow (maybe shorten the link and make it the top level project in red.) I feel like I've learned a lot more from trying this system than I would have by simply reading the book.Designer Dave Seah has a kick-ass range of free downloadable time management templates. Overall - I'll be switching back to digital, but I'll likely be using a small notebook / bullet journal to lay out my day before I head out the door.
Emergent task planner how to#
With the Franklin Planner I can't help but feel like I'm letting something slip through the cracks and I don't know how to fight it. When I was using a digital system nothing ever slipped through the cracks, but my todoist seemed loaded with clutter then ended up not getting cleared out (this is my own fault). It s a pain taking out a clunky planner if I get a text message with an associated task or someone send me an appointment via google calendar. I hate having to hand write anything (didn't know this was going to be so painful. The structure of the Franklin Planner is wonderful and they do a great job of seemingly capturing everything and giving you the knowledge base in one package. I like being able to have everything within a single pane view I like the FP system for prioritizing tasks (A,B,C based on priority, then 1,2,3 based on priority within each letter)
it does feel good to write things down and I find that I'm more aware of what's going on despite not having things at my finger tips I've been using todoist (tasks, projects, goals +google cal (appointments/recurring) +onenote (notes, goal planning) and recently switched over to the Franklin Planner(FP) just to try a paper system.
