I like "That One Thing" & the "Must/Should/If Time" methods. Those seems to be what I end up doing most of the time, but it always looks so much nicer when you "draw a picture" first! I'm not the most creative person, but I sure can follow a template! Thanks for the tips!

​@@squairdplans Yes kids do need reminders but you're not understanding her point - you devalued parents by putting "Call Mom" in the lowest priority category and classified that phone call as the kind of job that is not important if you don't do it (lower priority than starting a load of laundry and even lower than making a "Target run"). :(

If I haven't called my mom, it's not because I don't want to. I'm trying to not fail out or have to give my last drop of blood. For those of us in college trying not to drown, calm down.

@@anthonytroupe4923 As the parent who waits patiently for a call from her grown children, and the one who has a parent, I understand both sides. I actually put calling my parent on my to do list so that I do it at least once a week if he doesn't call. It's a priority to do for the week so I will make time for it no matter how busy I get. I also put my children and grandchildren down. If they do not contact me because I know how busy they are....son is working 50 or more hours a week, studying to take the electrician exam and being an awesome dad to 3. Daughter is working full time while caring for a toddler, doing payroll and books for her husband's business and another occasional job that occurs on weekends. They are busy. I am busy. If we don't make it a priority it will not happen. 5 minutes if nothing else.

It's so helpful to have a system! :D

This might go down in history as the most practically helpful video I've ever watched. I'm one of those people whose brain is not naturally organized, and although I'm a "big to-do list" maker, I've always struggled with how to proceed from there in anything except a very random way. No system I've ever tried has worked for me, but I can already tell that there are some options in this video that will work with the way my brain operates. Thank you so much! Subscribing now! :)

For those of you complaining about the priority assigned to "call mom": I do schedule when I am going to call my mom in my planner. If your mom talks as much as mine on the phone, it is terribly counterproductive to call her first thing in the morning. Also, when you like calling your mom, that call is your reward for having completed your tasks during the day.

Love the energy level! I have chronic fatigue and low immune so getting things done is a challenge. Last year I made to do list for home and work then put a highlight post it on the one thing that I would feel accomplished if I got it done. I would move my highlight if I didn't have the energy to do that then come back another day. (Also moved to next thing if that one was done. Loved being able to move it!) After seeing this I am going to put a L, M, and H besides tasks. Think I was doing that in my head, but this way if the Fibro Fog is happening I won't have to think or feel guilty.

There's also an idea for people with chronic illness or with energy fluctuations, which many planner and productivity videos often disregard or forget. I also loved that you showed a different idea for each day, which really helps my brain understand that I can use any of these depending on my work load or energy levels and change it daily, if required. For some reason I thought I had to stick to one form of organizing my to dos and I wasn't being successful. You've gained one more sub and I will be watching your other content as I also love planners! And I definitely will be re-watching this video several times! Thank you so much!!!
