Does anyone know of, or even better work for, a company who can make or modify diaries to a specific design that you want?

Currently covering another department at worl so have been setting out my diary in a specific way as it makes it much easier for handling all the information that im getting on a daily basis. I like the system so want to keep it on but havent got the patience to sit there and divide up and label a full years worth of diary pages!

Outlook tasks and calendar?

Personally i just use a notepad called worklist. Add new things to the bottom of it, remove things when they are done

edit - found this on a forum. Sounds better

This is how I use Mark's system on Outlook ( actually Entourage - Outlook for Mac):

All the tasks I collect one day I list for the next day in "Tasks". I label it "Action This Day"( after Winston Churchill's term) , colour it red and set it at the Highest Priority.

If I don't complete the task that day I change the colour to blue and label it "Work" and lower the priority to High.

If I still do not do it the following day I change the colour to gray and label it "Backlog" and set it to Normal.

I rank the list using the Priority button and the list lines up with the next day's work at the top, the previous day below it and the backlog below the first two.

So at a glance I can see by colour and exclamation mark the rank according to Mark's system.


As I complete the task I take it off the list.

I use the list to track my efficiency but that's the obsessive part of me.

Hope this helps.

Useful but I was thinking more of a diary that you write in.

Im the sort of person who prefers everything written down rather than on my computer, I spend so much time on the road I cant always have a computer to hadn so I have my trusty old diary :D
