This is the planner i use for work and as i work only monday to friday i decided to make it a monday to friday diary, so i didn't waste space on weekend days i didn't write in.

Starts on the 25th January cause i created it just this week.

Basically it's a five day work week to a two page spread. Mon-Wed on one page and Thur, Fri, Notes and weekend on a second page.

Each day is divided into general notes at the top, morning (anything that happens before 8am). Time slots from 8am till 7pm; then evening (anything that happens after 7pm)

Also included is a notes section and a weekend section - sometimes stuff happens on the weekend that i need to be aware of in my work diary so i put it here.

I print it out on A4 double sided so that you see one week at a time and bind it together with the other pages in my system. You could also punch it and keep it loose leaf in a folder. Friends of mine print one week out a time or a month at a time.

I'm working on a few other designs at the moment including a 7 day work week and a landscape one page version of this page.

Components & Usage...

Header
Room to write description of the meeting, i usally write the date as well. Can be used for team meetings or meetings with individuals. Also a box with processed - after a meeting i transfer notes and actions to my diary and planner system and then file this sheet.

Prep
This is where i empty my head of all agenda items that i want to speak about at the meeting. I have a formal meeting with my boss every monday morning, so during the rest of the week i keep one page handy and jot down anything i need to speak to him about at this meeting.

Notes
A fairly big notes section for joting down stuff that comes up at the meeting or just doodling if it's a really boring meeting!

Action Section
A place to write all the actions that have come out of the meeting.

I find this works really well for personal note taking and minute taking at meetings. Let me know if it works for you or any improvements and stay tuned for more pages in this system.

There are two identical pages in the pdf so you can print double sided.

Don't remember where I got the template for this. Was either on this site, or David Seah's Personal CEO (http://www.davidseah.com).

Modified it to my liking, then I lost the hard drive I put them on. Recently found the printed copies, and did them from scratch in OpenOffice Draw. Once I got started, it was easy.

The first one is for 2010. You can circle the month, and write in the topic in the blank by the year. I manage a team and needed to track follow-ups for communication to my boss. You can put the person you're assigning the task to in the "[WHO]" spot, and when they were assigned the task/item, and what they're waiting for.

I also created a "6 Slot" version where I can track my team's items.

Hope you like it - feel free to use to your liking. (Also, please let me know if I didn't credit the people who should be).

Just select start and end dates (the program always uses the whole week), set the papersize and margins to your needs and print it out.

I print out the PDF in booklet format on A4 paper.

for someone who wants the maximum white space. 4.25 x 6.75 Cut out around the border line as it is exactly the page size.

Whichever way you want to use it!

For simple planning.

I have always had trouble with remembering what needs to be done each day,
so I created this template.
It has a section for expenses aswell.
enjoy

This is designed to be printed front and back onto 5.5x8.5" paper. I usually cut computer paper in half then print on the smaller sheets.

I use the left hand sheet to schedule my appointments.

The right sheet tracks all of the necessary tasks for the day and week. I can make a list of all my weekly projects (craft, cleaning, child education, etc...) or else use it as a shopping list in the upper right column. I often use the note section to remember special needs of family members and friends and my children's homework focus for the week.

I enjoy the evening planning section because it allows me to plan a movie, game, or talk with my spouce. I also plan runnover projects (alone time) or note evenings when I'll be out.

The menus are useful in two ways. First, I can plan out the week in advance and follow it. Or, I can just write down everything we eat for a week and THEN it becomes a menu. This is an invaluable tool for tracking what we 'really' eat. The leftover section can be used to note what needs to be eaten that week OR what leftovers will be comming from that week. I find it more useful to see what needs to be eaten, but I do have some menus that tell me what is likely to be leftover for the next week. Don't throw out full menu pages. Save them and recycle the week at a later time.

The formal menu section is useful for planning gatherings or nice family dinners. We try to have at least one NICE meal a month. This helps me to make sure the table is set and that the meal is perfect for the occasion.
