3. Always keep your planner by your side

Having a planner means using it often enough. Check it a few times a day to see how many things you have done and how many tasks area still there that need to be done. Your planner is as important as your notebook or cell phone. Remember to use it on a daily basis. Later on you’ll get used to it and it will be your habit. Keep your planner by your side from morning to evening. This is the best way to make most out of it.

4. Write down even the smallest tasks

Make notes as often as possible. We tend to ignore details, but all those small things make sense and help us move ahead. Write down everything. Do not trust your memory too much since you can easily forget something important.

5. Determine what kind of planner you need

Your needs may be different from those other people have. Find the most appropriate planner for your needs. It all depends on your lifestyle. Some planners are great for people who are constantly on the move. There are planners that are created for office workers.
