In fact, sorting out, mucking out and keeping things permanently in order is easier than you might think - provided that you follow some basic tips that this book shows.

Keeping things tidy - the best tools: Organize with a smartphone or calendar
// By Simone Janson

Keeping track of your planning keeps track of what's important and what you need to do. What helps you are technical aids, but also paper and pen. Which one is better - from an ecological as well as organizational point of view?

The advantages of written organization

If you organize yourself in writing, you don't have to constantly think about your planning and keep things in mind, but can devote your energy to other things and occasionally look at your planner. But it is not enough if you only plan in some way: You also need the right planning tools. It is very important that you commit yourself to a planning tool. That sounds easy, but it is not: think about how you are organized now.

• Where do you have your eMail-Addresses filed?
• And where your phone numbers?
• How do you remember important dates?
• And how do you write your task lists?

Take an inventory: What is your previous planning system like? Maybe like this:

• eMail- Addresses: In the address book of the eMail-Programms
• Other addresses: Loose on business cards in the drawer
• Important dates on sticky notes on the bulletin board or on the notepad
• ...

Merge data properly

It is of course the fastest form of planning: You simply leave data where it can be stored the fastest, for example on the sticky note that you just access on the phone or in eMailProgram where the eMail- Addresses are saved automatically. But it is not the best form: You will notice this at the latest when you are stuck in a traffic jam on the way to an appointment and have all the data for the appointment with you on the sticky note, but not the mobile phone number of your conversation partner to inform him of the delay. Or during a phone call you have to quickly check whether you have time for a certain appointment - because "there was something", you just can't find the sticky note on which it says and you have just shut down the computer and can access it Software that you normally use to manage your appointments is currently inaccessible. In short: if you plan in this way, you must always try and compare several media. This can quickly create chaos.

Think about whether it makes more sense for you to work with a diary, a schedule book, scheduling software on the computer or an electronic organizer. Everyone is different and a different planning tool makes sense for everyone. The ideal tool does not yet exist. Test the various instruments beforehand, before you buy an expensive system that will not work for you and get detailed advice from specialist dealers, but do not pretend! Search the internet for the latest test results from consumers. For some schedule instruments, there are product tests that are unfortunately no longer up to date, but can offer a first orientation.

Tools and tools for scheduling

The following overview will help you choose the most suitable instrument for you. In fact, there are many people who still prefer to manage their dates, appointments and notes on paper rather than in electronic form. Decide consistently for a planning system that you update regularly. Schedule the time for the update.

Keeping two address and schedule books, such as one electronic and one on paper, up-to-date at the same time is next to impossible: You need twice the effort. At some point you forget to compare data and your system is messed up because you no longer know which instrument contains the more current data. Even if it is difficult because every system has its advantages and disadvantages: Decide.

Checklist: Advantages of planning on paper

It may sound old-fashioned, but scheduling on paper has advantages for many people. These are:

• Independence: This can always be used anywhere, even without batteries. With every electronic organizer you must have spare batteries with you.
• Security: The data is usually not lost - unlike the electronic solution, where system crashes can lead to data loss. The only disadvantage with paper: The perforated sheets can tear out, which is annoying for data that you want to keep longer (such as addresses). It is recommended to use hole amplifiers.
• Notes: They can be scribbled down quickly and then transferred later. The paper version is therefore more suitable for taking notes. You can also make full use of each sheet, instead of restricting yourself to a small input field. For schedule books, there are also insert sheets that are folded and can represent a project plan in full size.
• Storage space: You can also set up a small mini office in the schedule book, take your plastic cards with you, use it as a wallet, etc. There are also small booklets in pocket size.
• Price: They are cheaper than electronic organizers, but depending on the quality, they can also reach them.

But there is also a very important disadvantage and this is of an ecological nature: With schedule books, paper is used that has to be disposed of afterwards with a lot of effort.

Appointment book

Purely appointment calendars are only suitable if you remember very little dates and appointments and do not have to plan much else because you essentially get there with your time. Then it is sufficient to enter your appointments in a calendar and the necessary contact details behind them. And also use a small notebook if you need to make a quick note on the go.

But you already fail with this system if you want to manage address data in addition to appointments or if you want to plan your time. Because an appointment calendar only reminds you of appointments: you cannot create task and priority lists with the duration and objectives for the activities. For this reason, time management expert Lothar Seiwert describes the conventional schedule as "gravedigger of every successful time planning".

Schedule book

A schedule book is much more than a simple diary. It helps you to plan and coordinate your daily work processes better and offers not only a calendar, but also numerous other useful tools with which my suggestions for scheduling can be optimally implemented. Schedule books come in different sizes, designs and price ranges: Think about which overviews, plans and registers are suitable for your daily work and then select the product: If you have a lot of appointments every day, you need a planner with a daily calendar, otherwise a weekly or monthly calendar is enough, but you may need a little more space for addresses or business cards.

Very inexpensive models are often already available in the supermarket for a few euros, but they often only fulfill the most necessary functions. If you want to work optimally with a scheduler, it is worth digging deeper into your pocket for individual equipment. If you prefer to carry your planning around in your pants or handbag, it makes sense not to choose a DIN A5 size, but a planner in A6. You also have to dig a little deeper into your pocket if you prefer the leather version - these high-quality versions can cost up to 400 euros. Create a checklist of which functions your schedule book should contain and search for it - as in the example below, which contains some absolutely necessary functions of a schedule planner:

Checklist: What a schedule book should contain

• Activity lists, checklists, meeting and project plans that help organize certain tasks, prioritize, schedule and delegate
• Daily, weekly, monthly or annual plans and overviews that help with the general organization of appointments and tasks. In this way you can keep an eye on things even over longer periods of time
• Memo data sheets for quick notes, data and facts
• Address sheets for your own address database including field for address, eMail-Address, telephone and fax number with alphabetical register
• Sleeves for business cards or check cards so that they are laid out in a practical and clear manner
• General information such as world or Germany map, public holidays, school holidays, trade fair and tax dates
• Registers that practically divide the book into different departments and sort your data alphabetically
• ...

Checklist: Advantages of electronic planning

• Appointments: Here you can coordinate the appointments with the PC and, if available, over the network in your company with your colleagues. Recurring appointments can only be entered once with very little effort, they are automatically displayed again and again. The appointments can also be easily moved and edited. The software also checks whether appointments already exist and thus avoids double entries.
• Automatic reminder: You no longer have to look at your calendar yourself, your electronic software automatically sounds a beep when an appointment or a task is imminent. This enables you to pursue your target planning more consistently and to check yourself for compliance with your planning. Of course you have to set this accordingly. Pending tasks are automatically carried over to the next day.
• Contacts: The contacts can also be neatly maintained. You can also transfer data faster: For example, if someone sends you an address via eMail reports, you can simply and quickly copy the changed data into the software. You can also write notes about each contact, for example to remember who this person was or whether they had personal preferences - this greatly simplifies the later orientation.
• Actuality: straight eMail- Addresses and telephone numbers, but also appointments are constantly changing. These constant changes can be maintained more neatly and more clearly in an...
