This is what my desk has looked like for the last few weeks. Talk about a buzz kill! Try looking at this madness for 10 hours in a row. YUCK. Each day I would throw away some of the Post-It notes once the tasks were done… and then create NEW ONES. UGH! It was literally insane.
A few days ago, I took one of Natalie’s marble notebooks from school and jotted everything down in one place. Now, I can just check my list each morning and cross off everything that’s completed.
Looks MUCH better now. lol!
I tried to use online list makers etc – but none of them really ever felt right. How do you handle your ‘To Do’ list???

Same here. I love pen & paper. I have some stuff in my BB, some in my iPhone, some in an old-school calendar. It's just a disorganized wreck!

I'm old school just like you. Nothing works for my To Do Lists like pen and paper. I do try to keep it in a notebook but invariably have multiple notebooks floating around house, desk, kitchen, bedroom & purse. Switching day to day or week to week. It makes sense to me but is crazy! xo

Like you, the online or iPhone apps to keep lists never feel right for me. The only one I've had luck with somewhat is/was Wunderlist. I like that I can sync it with my home computer too. But, I never stick with them. I always go for that paper & pen. If you find a system that works, please share ;)

I am OBSESSED with asana.com
It's gmail's to-do list ap, basically, but it's made for business. So Seba and I are on a "team" and I can assign him tasks, he gets emailed when I assign him a task and then I get emailed when he completes a task. It's very handy. And prior to that I was all paper all the time, so I feel ya.
