If nothing else, I’m loyal!

Loyal to my tools, that is.

In the 1980’s I started using a Franklin Covey Planner to manage my time & tasks. It was a well-designed, comprehensive system. It required constant updating and moving things around but it always felt good crossing off a completed item with an exaggerated swoosh of my hand. That was, however, the only thing that really felt good. Otherwise, it really sucked to use.

I bought a new one every year for 19 years.

Does Franklin Covey Have a Digital Planner? — iPad Planner

In the mid-2000’s I attempted the impossible. I tried to actually use Microsoft Outlook Tasks to replace my Franklin Covey Planner. I built all kinds of workarounds and kludges to make it work but, ultimately, it was as impossible as everyone had warned me it would be. But did I listen? No. Ten years.

Ultimately, after that ten years of torture, I found Todoist. I cannot say enough good about what is now the #1 task management platform according to many reviewers, and I won’t say anything here and now, because we’re here to talk about another kind of tool.
