"I love a physical annual planner. I'm not one of those people who has a shared Google calendar with friends or my spouse, and I'm definitely not one of those people who can take each day on the fly and remember things I have to do or play it all by ear. I find that when I keep my to-dos digital rather than physical, I struggle to actually absorb and remember everything I'm supposed to do that day."
"Plus, my email is a nightmare (I have like 17,000 unread emails or more), so I've more or less given up on that as a productivity space. At the same time, my life will literally fall apart if I don't keep track of things I have planned, from appointments to hangs with friends to a cleaning schedule. In any case, for all these reasons, I've kept a personal physical planner since my sophomore year of high school, if not earlier."
A strong preference for physical planning stems from difficulty absorbing tasks when they remain digital and from overwhelming email volume. Consistent use of a personal planner prevents missed appointments, social plans, and household tasks. The Moleskine Weekly Hard Cover Pocket Planner is purchased annually and valued for its pocket size and durability. Moleskine, based in Milan, has produced notebooks and stationery since 1997. Planners are available in pocket (3.5 x 5.5 inches), large (5 x 8.25 inches), and XL (7.5 x 9.75 inches) sizes, with hard or soft covers. Layout options include daily, weekly, and monthly formats; the weekly layout pairs a Monday–Sunday page with lined notes on the opposite page.
