Lesson Overview

14.6 – Using Paper Calendars, Whiteboards, and Planners: Choosing the right tool for tracking your schedule depends on how you think best. Some people remember visually and benefit from paper calendars or wall whiteboards, where tasks stay visible. Others prefer planners or apps that travel with them. The key is consistency—use one system long enough for it to become habit. Color-coding helps separate personal, work, and medical events at a glance. Writing things down reinforces memory and builds accountability. A visible schedule encourages independence and reduces the need for reminders from others. Whether digital or paper, the goal is clarity and accessibility. Keep it updated daily so it reflects real life, not fantasy plans. When your calendar becomes part of your daily rhythm, you start steering your week instead of chasing it.
