![]() Do you use a digital organizer - or are you loyal to your paper planner? Digital calendars and planners have become both easier to use and to access. Smartphone apps put complex calendars literally in our purses and back pockets. The ability to access future commitments in seconds and have them graphically spread in front of us like artwork can be exciting, and possibly a bit overwhelming. The most important consideration when choosing a planner is what feels natural to you and helps you best stay on track. As with paper planners, there are specific pluses and minuses to using digital calendars. Digital Calendar Pros: + Lightweight, compact and portable + Can hold a TON of information + Can program for reoccurring events (i.e. weekly meetings) + Easily search for data Digital Calendar Cons: - Requires you to rely on device being charged (or find an outlet) - Higher learning curve – must learn the program or app - Can be challenging for people to use who are visual learners or who prefer the tactile feature of paper planners My advice for starting out is the same as with paper planners – choose the simplest option, master it, and build upon that mastery as your needs change. A formula for organizational success! Do you use a digital calendar on your smart phone/tablet/laptop/desktop computer? I’d love to hear what program and what you love about that program!
