#1 - Look at your planner multiple times a day.
#2 - Do something from your planner after you look at it; let it guide your choices.

It’s so tempting to think that the only thing keeping us from being organized is the layout of the planner page. If we just had that planner, then we’d finally have it all put together.
We spend time setting up or even creating from scratch what we hope will be our perfect planner that will finally work for us, but then it doesn’t.
No matter what planner you have, it won’t make your plans happen automatically. That will always take effort, time, attention, and intention – every day.
We need to not only have a plan, we need to look at it multiple times a day and we need to then do what it says.
