What is the best way to get and stay organized? Paper planners (small or large) or electronic?

I do my planning on paper whether it be a daily planner, calender, grocery list, or travel planner. I like to page through and see everything right in front of me. Planners also allow me to store other information such as maps or brochures for travel.

I wrote a hub on travel planners:hubpages.com/hub/Planning-A-Family-Vacat... some things electronically is a great way to save on paper and storage though. I have done things like our budget and address book electronically but I make sure to keep a copy on an external flash drive in case of a computer failure.

I use Evernote. I wrote a hub about keeping my class notes organized using this program: hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Use-Evernote-to-... use Evernote to keep track of class notes, recipes, to do lists, blog ideas, etc. I use it every single day. I also use Google Calendar which I sync with Calendar on my Macbook and iPhone.

I have reminders set so that my rent is never late and I never miss a due date or appointment. Lastly, I still love to hand write to-do lists. I can't help it.

I think it's probably my obsessive compulsive personality but I write out numerous to-do lists every day (writing and re-writing them). You can tell how stressed out I am by how many to-do lists I pull out of my pockets at the end of the day.

I use only a paper planner and occasionally to do lists - also on paper. Not on sticky notes (way too small), letter size paper instead.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
