How I Use My Calendar As My ToDo List



I'm an inveterate fiddler and am always trying out different ways of doing things in an attempt to find the best one.  Often the search for the optimum approach becomes more important to me than actually getting the job done.  This is sometimes es a good thing, and sometimes not so good.  The worst outcome has been the numerous experiments in keeping well organised, most of which have resulted in reduced levels of productivity.  Although it goes totally against the grain of my being, the conclusion is inevitable.  A simple system that I stick to is preferable to a perfect one.  And I have one now that seems to work pretty well.
