Comments on: Digital Planner or Paper Planner – How To Use Both Effectively https://almostpractical.com/digital-planner-or-paper-planner/ Home Organization, Time Management, Productivity Thu, 18 May 2023 11:55:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Stephanie Trax https://almostpractical.com/digital-planner-or-paper-planner/#comment-89208 Thu, 18 May 2023 11:55:00 +0000 https://almostpractical.com/?p=20667#comment-89208 Thank you SO much for this article. I already do this sort of…I use my google calendar for my master (for the same reason you mentioned, it’s always with me!). Then, on Sunday night I transfer appointments/events from that onto a weekly dry erase calendar magnet on the fridge, so the whole family can see the week’s layout. BUT I’m missing this critical step you mentioned of putting stuff on a DAILY calendar! I didn’t even realize how much I was missing it, but I am. I love how you mentioned the hours, filling it with tasks (I use Google Keep for tasks) and then making notes to myself like “grab the library books to return” or even questions I have (how many juiceboxes do I need to donate to the art show). It’s brilliant! You have made a big difference in my life. Subscribing now!

My employer does not allow auto merging of calendars. I currently use my G-cal as my master calendar but since I work full time it is kind of a pain to manually sync them. What do you suggest?

Hi Suzanne,
Haha! I know that foofy fonts are definitely not for everyone. If you like the Erin Condren style of planners, they do have a Focused Collection with a very clean and simple font.
There is also the Passion Planner that takes a slightly different approach to planning and the font is not scripty at all. And the Planner Pad offers another unique planning approach.
If none of those work for you, you could try the Full Focus Planner, or the Hobonichi Planner Book or Hobonichi Techo Weeks.

So many choices! Let me know which one you like best.

I understand this is my own brand of weirdness and that they are extremely popular. Are you familiar with any good paper planners that use plainer fonts?
