I made the comment that I'm not busy enough to need more than a couple lines per day to keep track of meetings, commitments, and other "hard landscape" items (to use the "Getting Things Done" term) during the week.
Shown here are the Levenger Circa wallet-sized cards. One side is ruled, the other side is graph/grid paper. I made a nano calendar by writing the dates of the week at the top of this first card. I think moved 4 boxes down and drew a line across. At the top of the box created by that line, I put the date and abbreviation for the day. For example "12 - Mon" Move another 4 boxes down, repeat. You should end up with 4 dates on the top card.
For the bottom card, move 5 boxes down for the first date. You can write the date between the discs. Now repeat the previous pattern - 4 boxes down for each date. You should end up with 3 days on the card and another section 5 boxes high for notes. Whether you want to draw another line between the last date and notes is up to you.
Rollabind ruler/pagefinder is in the middle to easily turn immediately to your calendar. Rollabind page afterward for additional notes.
Advantages to this system: just two Circa rings to archive it or put it in your wallet and easily take it with you!
Downsides: it is sideways from the rest of the planner and does not give you much room to write.
I'm going to try this for a while. It shouldn't take long to figure out if it works for me.

A sum up of key tips from Getting Things Done - a book by David Allen. Sketched from a talk by Jill Christiaens of EMBL-EBI in April 2018
It doesn't happen very often, but I was finally able to clear through my email inbox after the trip and get it down to zero messages. That's right, it's clear.
The finished paper covered jotter with pencil groove and paper. The small Bulldog clips also help retain the pencil. The thickness of the jotter is to allow for a pencil slot and to stop the clips from making the base uneven.

My mini Tickler File covers a rolling two week period and keeps my upcoming LEGO auctions organised. (I sell LEGO minifigs. Read more about it at my Brick Trader blog.)
A 'real' Tickler File (a rolling month rather than a rolling fortnight) looks more like this.
After much soul searching and asking for help from helpful people on the 43folders google group, I have decided to try for the upteenth time to implement GTD but using a simple paper edition to grasp the whole concept before moving onto more complex tools.
so this is what two years worth of notecard jottings looks like, when you can't keep up with putting them into the computer. infoglut.
headings are:
* abby (object-oriented database project)
* art (ideas for paintings)
* yr (psychological and spiritual ideas and quotes)
* unsorted (lists of things to do, books to get, words to look up, etc)
* school (undergrad stuff - biochemistry, proteins, etc)
* unused (blank cards)
* half-used (one side used)
* used (both sides used, hence useless, except as filling)

Thanks Darren for that.
And the uses, Thanks Brad for that.
Getting things done - the book.
In OF you can create folders, which I had been using for basic collection (work, personal, school, etc) and keeping individual projects inside of it.
Lately I've been feeling overwhelmed by overdue items and that it just wasn't organized well. Of course The David would say that it's probably because I haven't been doing the weekly review, and he'd be right. But I was curious about how others were using the folder hierarchy to sort their stuff. One person wrote that they had been using it as a place for their vertical planning.
In this screen shot I've started something to that effect. In GTD you should start on the "runway"- the next actions that you can take. Then you assemble a project around that, then an area of focus, then a goal (it goes on from there) that you are trying to achieve.
I started with tasks then created a project around it. But then I took a different approach to folders. I created an Area of Focus folder that contains individual projects and put that inside a Goal folder. You can see that I've got some blank spots in there that I'm trying to figure out still. I'm also labeling them AF and G until I get more items into it and hopefully can distinguish the goals from the areas of focus more easily.
It's been mentally taxing to reverse engineer a folder hierarchy but I think it will be worth it. Since attending the GTD: The Roadmap seminar I've learned the value of vertical planning, but it's always been stored somewhere else. This is exciting to see all in one place.
I had 10-15 minutes to kill this morning, so I turned an old print into a nice compact cover for my next-action lists.
A trick I like to use to make it look as if I'm reading one thing, when in fact I'm reading something completely different, is to hide one book or magazine inside another.
In this picture, for example, it appears that I'm reading a book about productivity...but I'm not.
