Scheduling, planning and follow-through. Some questions

I entirely agree with Paul and Franz - the more I’ve played with planning/project management software, the more irritating I’ve found it for managing all the things that do, indeed, “slip through the cracks”.

There’s a very nice, thought-provoking system described here: http://www.bulletjournal.com/

It’s entirely paper-based, and yet extensible to any number of different software solutions if required.

Personally, I’ve almost entirely abandoned the many to-do apps I’ve played with over the years, and ended up on Trello. I like being able to see multiple to-do lists side by side! And Trello is free, cross-platform and collaborative.

For urgent reminders, I’ve gone back to apps like Apple’s Reminders or in Windows, Stickies.
