There are six simple rules to use as a planning tool if you want to gain control of your life. They are as follows:

• • 1) Take your day planner with you ALWAYS
  • 2) Use only one calendar
  • 3) Commit to planning each and every day
  • 4) Use a good reference system
  • 5) Use a master task list
  • 6) Use a monthly index

Many times we have got to discern if the event or activity fits into our needs or wants categories. Our needs can be depicted as quadrants in a circle of a wheel, because when all of them are being met our lives move forward smoothly, like a well-greased wheel that turns on its axle rolling down a hill.

There are many ways to utilize technology today. I encourage you to use the easiest, most efficient method for you.
