DISQUS

Mike Mahoney · 10 months ago

I use a steno pad. An old fashioned, green-paper, line down the middle, spiral bound steno pad.

I get a phone message - write it down. Take notes during a phone call - write it down. Have to do something - write it down. Talk to someone - write it down.

Not only is it a good "to-do" list, but it doubles as an activity log. Need to remember what I said to that guy in November? Flip, flip... there it is.

I do all my worship planning old school with paper and pencil. Even though I've got the knowledge and ability to do it all digitally (Google Docs, Planning Center Online, pdfs of every leadsheet, etc.) I just process everything more thoughtfully and prayerfully by doing it the old, slow way.

I've moved my to-do list back to notepad and pencil too. I was using Remember the Milk and Ta-Da List for a while, but having that piece of paper sitting right there on my desk all day/week seems to work much better for me.

As a project engineer, I used microsoft outlook "Tasks." I could set a desired completion date and, if I didn't go back and mark it completed or extend the date, my computer would bug the Dickens out of me (no reference to the author intended). Now that I am retired, that sense of urgency seems to have wained.
