I think the on-the-go Junior setup would benefit from lightweight cardstock dividers and adhesive tabs.

I can still get the plastic dividers for at home storage and organization.

Unfortunately, there is no Staples in my immediate vicinity, but the other big box office supply stores are close by, there is a Franklin Covey store and an independently owned office supply store.

Much fun will be had brainstorming the new portable junior size ideal configuration. :)

Staples has a whole category

You might be able to use this hack for your smaller book - for my 5-1/5 x 8-1/2 size planner, I use a 1/2 sheet of cardstock, with an adhesive tab on it. They come in a little package @ Office Depot, and they're just like the tab-dividers you get for large binders, with the little papers in them. HTH.

I am glad I read this. I never thought of having a "my life" section. Mine is just calendar, to do, addresses and shopping notes. Thanks for the idea!

I too am a planner nut and have several planners but sometimes it is because I buy used ones and use various parts of them to put together the planner I use. Since I got my blackberry I used it for awhile and not the planner but I just cant get myself to give up on my paper planner so I am not going to try and fight it anymore. I have been using the 3 3/4x 6 3/4 size but not seeing much for templates for that size on this site so wondering if I am going to have to make myself get a bigger planner. As far as pages and stuff goes, I will sometimes buy the cheaper planners at the dollar store and use the pages in them because its cheaper than buying the official refills. I will also buy the plain note paper in the small size that fits my planner and use that for a lot of my writing and lists.If anyone knows rescources especially for tabbed dividers in my planner's size I would appreciate it. I would especially like to find 3 3/4 x6 3/4 divider templates so I can make dividers with my own categories. For now I am using post-its stuck to the edge of the pages.

If/When one is found, it will be posted

kim,
thank you SO much for posting this! i was very recently diagnosed with rapid cycle bipolar disorder (basically meaning my moods do whatever they want, whenever they want) and i just started medication for it. it's so nice to have something to track my moods and the effects of my meds especially for someone as scattered as me. i would have never been able to put a template together myself. thank you so much!!

Hm...

Yeah, just what we want--manipulating peoples' good intentions to further your own aims. And we call that managing humans

Just exactly does one get the template?

INTROVERT, THAT'S ME

I am an introvert; however, people don't think I am because I can be very articulate and handle myself fairly well in public. The catch is, I cannot maintain my verbal communication energy level for any significant length of time. I have to build up energy to communicate verbally.

Chunking....Thank you.

Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this article. It motivated me to try it in my ordinary life. I am thinking of those projects that never seem to get done. Simple ordinary things like cleaning out all the closets in the house. I never seem to get around to accomplishing this task. Perhaps all of those hours spent browsing the pen section of various stores....? I sat down and decided that I had four closets to clean. I chose one and divided it into shelves, floor, walls, etc. So now I am doing one shelf a week. Eventually it will get done. I know this is a very simple thing, but until I read your article, I never thought of approaching it in this manner. Now as I walk by the closets, I no longer feel guilt but know one day they will reflect order. Thanks.
