I have these things I call "Sacred Rituals".
Sacred Ritual #2: If it's in the book (my daily planner) it gets done. If it's not in the book, it ain't happening.
I have yet to find an app that I prefer over an actual physical planner. This year I decided to try a bullet journal and I think I like that format a little better. It works for me because I'm a relentless "box checker" and if I hand write something, I can usually remember it. There's something kind of satisfying about looking at my agenda and seeing a line through every task at the end of the day.
Planner? You mean the ignored booklet of existential dread? I think most of us have a small pile of them leftover from school that we haven't gotten around to throwing out.
