Ways of a Filofax (Part 1) - The Dashboard
Рет қаралды 85,875
12 жыл бұрынI have been using a Filofax for a year now and have found that the paper planning method is by far what works best for me. Write it down, cross it out, keep it moving. I can't be without it now. No way, no how. In part one of Ways of a Filofax, I show you the dashboard of my planner. This section is where I store my inbox (incoming) items and keep track of my goals. I also give you a glimpse at my secondary planning tool which is an iPhone app called 2Do. In this gorgeous app that allows me to organize by tabs, yes super-duper tabs, I keep certain lists and reoccurring actions.
Products mentioned:
Malden Filofax - personal size in Ochre
Colorful tabs - Note Tabs by Avery (Franklin Covey)
Post-it flags and arrows (Amazon / Office supply stores)
Sticky paper arrows - Natico Multi-Tasker Memo Holder with six year calendar (Amazon)
Transparent Envelope / Flyleaf's (Filofax)
Fun mini pockets - Secret Smash Pockets (K&Company)
Pens for color coding - Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coleto's (Jet Pens / Stationery Art)
Erasable black ink - Pilot Frixion (Jet Pens / Stationery Art)
Month on Two Pages Tabbed (Filofax)
Part 1: • Ways of a Filofax (Par... (The Dashboard)
Part 2: • Ways of a Filofax (Par... (The Priority Calendars)
Part 3: • Ways of a Filofax (Par... (The Essential Sections)

Started watching had to stop to change the battery in one of my smoke alarms, came back to finish watching and....beep! It took me three times of stopping and restarting to figure out it wasn't my alarm at all but yours, lol!! Great filo set up btw!!

I find it to be a great investment. It gets daily devoted usage. The texture, the pocket placements, the style of it alone feels like home. Unlike any other binder i've tried. And then you add your own personalized setup, the rest is history! Best of luck to ya!

@enjoyette 12 жыл бұрын
For writing down daily assignments I would recommend a "month on two pages - tabbed" and/or a "week on two pages" by Filofax or any other brand. A day per page would work as well, but I find the other two to be more efficient since you can see everything at a glance including an area for your commitments for the week.

It is on the lengthy side! The thought of using a pocket has crossed my mind long ago but I'll just stuff that pocket to no end and it'll end up weighing as much as an A5. And personal is just the IT size anyway. Just feels right. So yep, I hear ya, team personal crew. I thought you were all tabbed out in your fun Filo's. Tabs galore ;) Thanks! Yeah I've seen that new feature pop out at me as well. It looked non-reversible, so I thought let me wait for now.
@cj92akl 11 жыл бұрын
FC 'Compact' pages will fit into a Filofax Personal Malden (this model), because it's one of the wider Personals. With other Personal planners, though, you might find that the tabs stick out of the binder.
@enjoyette 12 жыл бұрын
I would suggest the personal size because portability is key. Depending on your planner setup and your choice of inserts you can make almost any size work. What won't fit on a certain insert can be simplified in that section and detailed in another.

Yes even though those FC compact pages (4¼" x 6¾") are wider, they will fit. The transparent pocket for my stickers at the very back is an FC compact sized sheet protector.

Thanks! Ah sounds awesome. Hope that goes well! I adore the setup of the Malden's pockets. Much rather have zipper compartments be located at the front. Bulk in the back is a no go. Oh how I wish they'd come out with an almond colored Malden like the Amazona in almond or the Aston in mushroom.

This is an AWESOME vid. I have a new personal Malden too (pink), and an iPhone, and got some great ideas. Funny thing though: your smoke detector was chirping in the background, which I kept thinking was mine. I had to stop the video several times to check mine before I realized it was yours. LOL. And my dog starts barking & freaking out every time he hears it. ;D

...If I make a separate section deep inside my planner for important grocery items, I know myself, I probably won't look at it as much. Therefore I keep my grocery items at the front of my planner (dashboard) so I'm constantly reminded of it and on top of that I love how easy it is for me to add items to the list this way. I also keep my Inbox (incoming) items here since these are items I constantly need to remember to process into actual planning sections, plus it's easy to add to that list.

Hey there, you can think of the dashboard like the desktop of your computer or the bookmark toolbar of your browser (if you use that). These are items that you want to get to quickly and can't be bothered with digging through your planner to find. Anything you want to see or want to be reminded of right when you open your planner… (continued)

HA HA HA I was going crazy trying to see if my smoke detector was acting up. I paused this video several times and waited under the detector in my hallway....and nothing. So I returned to your video ,and again I heard beep so I paused the vid again and waited yet again,then nothing. Came back and unpaused your vid and I finally figured out that IT WAS YOURS ALL ALONG lolololol

Oh yes those planners look super fun. However, planner size is a big factor for me. I've used an A5 once for a little bit and because of its weight I had to leave it at home when I didn't want to. With a personal sized planner I can get away with bringing it almost everywhere. No prob and thanks!

When it comes to my weekly section, I put the action of the entry in its related color as shown in my vid update. Ex: film: video / buy: card / due: chase ... the word "film" i'd write in pink b/c it's a project, the word "buy" in orange b/c it's an errand and the word "due" in green b/c it's related to finance and everything else I write in black to relax the color variance a bit.

@enjoyette 11 жыл бұрын
The stick factor of the Natico memo holder flags is a bit below average so it loses its tack quick, the more it's moved around. But since it's inexpensive, I mostly use them as placeholders for things I may need to jot down later. Saving the Post-It flags for important matters.
