@Randomness cool I like the idea of having inspiring quotes there as well! Sometimes I just look at what I have to do and go 'ugh' haha. Quotes would really help get the motivation going!
What helps you to keep using time-management devices such as diaries, apps or calendars?
I guess knowing that everything is already on the calendar on my phone, I just keep adding tasks to it so that it's all in one place. It's accessible because I pretty much bring my phone everywhere. And the wall planner has been helpful for me with seeing when things are due and how much time until then, so I keep using it. And it's nice and colourful

Yes I always find writing in colour is really helpful too! For example, for each subject at uni I use different colours in my diary, so when I go to think of what is due next for what unit, I tend to picture the colour first and then remember ~ funny how the brain works 😛 And yess we learnt in psychology that it does roughly take 21 days to form a habit if you really stick to it in that time!

@cupcakes_032 colour is the best! It makes everything seem so much more cheerful to do, and it's so easy to see what needs doing 😄 (I'm definitely a visual learner)

I admire the time that probably took to make 'colourful' colourful and it's a great idea too!originally posted on 31-10-2016 9:37 PM

I know for me, I'm going to set up one of those tables to sort the importance and urgency of my activities.I'm actually so excited to try it out!! Thanks @Ben-RO and @FootyFan26 😛

Hmm, I think perhaps spend a bit more time being proud of what I've done, remembering that the stuff I put on my "to do" list is stuff i chose because it's important to me and that I'm pretty lucky to be able to have a list full of things that matter to me. I guess just being a bit more grateful for that, rather than being like "OMG THERE"S SO MANY THINGS TO DOOOOO"
