Hi JetPens! I am obsessed with your channel and the attention to detail. Could you by any chance list the pens and their thickness used in this video? I am specifically interested in the one used at 3:30 in the “Assign due dates” section. Thank you!
@@Sarah-od6nr Hi there! We have the pens used in the video listed in the description. The pen at 3:30 is a Pentel EnerGel Clena Gel Pen: www.jetpens.com/Pentel-EnerGel-Clena-Gel-Pens/ct/4894
Yeah, it'll save paper too, cos personally I don't like to plan on my phone, it just dosent let me concentrate, so paper was my only way to go... But yeah, if you have a whiteboard then having a good big checklist on your wall is the best possible thing
White boards dont work for me. I ignore it and it just becomes part of my environment. I actually use both physical and digital lists. Just what ever is convenient at the momemt. I do keep my my master list in my phone though.
I started a to-do list system that has worked well for me the past few years. Like the video suggested, I try to keep my task list limited to 10 items. For those items, I create checkboxes, and put a dot in the center of the box for items I must do today. This helps me prioritize and see what has to be done today at a glance. If I begin a task and don’t complete it, I shade in only half the checkbox - to show it’s still in progress. Then when it’s fully complete, I shade in the entire box. It’s a very simple and efficient method and keeps a clean page of only checkboxes and task descriptions.
For school, I would write my lists like an outline, indented like this: read 4 chapters of this ____ 2 pages of that ____ Mary Wollstonecraft's "Vindication of..." (due Mon) write essay (due Friday @12) ____ 2 responses to peers (due Thursday @11) ____ forum response (due Wed) or something like that. But separating what I had to read and what I had to write, and further separating it per class was super helpful for me. I also had a mini weekly calendar at the bottom corner of the page where I color coded all the due dates so I wouldn't get confused. It was super helpful. Hope my system helps someone else too!
Love all these tips! 😍 At 5:00 you gave me a great idea on how to re-purpose some items on hand. The Sun-Star Lightia memo pad is beautiful but as I'm a stationary hoarder I can't buy anymore this year lol But I'm thinking of putting my sticky pad propped up on a phone holder to keep things in plain sight on my desktop. There's something about having a standing notepad I think will keep my focus/ attention. Thank you for all the wonderful ideas!
Buy vertical-lined index cards or in a pinch, blank ones. I use them with a index-card holder by Oxford with a pen holder for personal stuff or Levenger if I am in a professional setting. Easy to keep track of and infinite possibilities. I do use washi tape and stamps on them when they need to grab my attention. I also use the pocket post-it’s to hold cards in folders, notebooks or iPad/tablets.
I am the queen of to do lists. I make them constantly. I have ongoing & master lists on my phone, keep more targeted notes and lists on my phone as well, then I write down lists based on time in my planner. and may even put sticky notes on my desk at work to keep me focused on work (my planner is used for both and and personal items). I completely agree with the concept of a master list, and don't forget to check them off. Let the master list sit for a while, and I vastly prefer digital for this one. It is less wasteful to constantly move things around, add them, subtract them, etc. I can keep a single running list without creating clutter. Also agree with the advice to not be afraid to move things around. Tasks take longer than you expect, or you aren't in the frame of mind that you thought you'd be in. So bump it to later and don't sweat it. Maybe it isn't even that important and you can skip it! Prioritizing is very important.
How detailed a list needs to be also depends on your mental state. When I was in grad school, beginning of semester lists had assignments; end of semester lists said things like make breakfast and lunch, brush hair and teeth...
To-do lists will backfire - making you less productive if you try to get as detailed as possible. Have you ever felt guilty and regretful because you wrote a long list with more than 10 different tasks (but most of them are from 1 task divided into many small tasks) but did not complete them. Trust me, if you plan to study today, you will have dozens of things like "Checkbox1. Learn History Checkbox2. Do Math homework Checkbox3. Do Physics Homework", seriously, this can be done comparable to OCD, you will NEVER be successful with dozens of unnecessary and useless things like "6:00 Wake up 6:05 Brush my teeth 6:10 Make bed 6:20 Read 10 page 7:00 Prepare to go to school", you will NEVER be able to complete all of them no matter how perfect you are with such a long page. So ultimately, what do I want to say here? To-do List is just a tool and you are the one using this tool to make your work more efficient, but if, you are not really focusing on your work, you are focusing on "How to write the most effective To-do list", "How to write a more beautiful To-do list", "How to write a To-do list for beginners", then your work will just stop at 0 with nothing really getting done.
Jetpens, thanks for the tips, I have a few kind of notebooks for myself, monthly expenses, accounts related to email address sign in, draft, small notebook to put in my bag for on-the-go, sticky note pad for reminder 😎
Hi JetPens! Great video; I think I may try out that Sun Star Lightia pad because, if it's not staring me in the face, I'll forget about it. Right now I use a Franklin Covey Planner, the weekly one I've been using since the 90s.
I'm good in doing task-to-do listing, example like list of utilities need to pay per month, list of personal purchase per month, list of household items need to buy, pre-plan on monthly expenses if personal purchase (example gaming PC) somehow may exceed budget, need takes many months of monthly saving money from paycheck, these kind of lists are important to me ~
I think it's such a waste of money and resources to make beautiful note pads just for lists that are meant to be thrown away very soon after the list is finished. I use used paper (printed on one face, the other is blank) that I cut in different sizes: lesson plans, quick note, shopping list...). As a teacher I never run out of used paper, and I'm sure you can find a lot in various workplaces too. Just set a carboard box next to the printers for misprinted docs and use them until it's full!
I had been having this doubt for a whole timeee....., And I am literally confused because of it, in making checkilists or to do listss..... Should we add the daily chores , like waking up, workout, etc etc in our to do list ???? Even if I am making such a to do list ``each day`` won't it be too uncomfortable to make check lists of same things ,each day???????.....or is there any such to do lists that let you write the tasks one time and and to mark it finished for many days????? Please ,can anyone help me out with this...🥺!!!

quite off topic, but it comes to my mind everytime I see people writing How tense some people write. It seems that clutching is common in the UK and USA. "tripod grip": ruclips.net/video/WjzNyHgPZac/видео.html Why do teachers teach children to write like that? Watching hands that form a fist when whey write make me feel uncomfortable, the blood being squeezed out of the nails and fingers. In Austria we are taught that the pen rests on the fingers, between index finger and middle finger and the thumb is higher up the pen grip, like shown here: ruclips.net/video/XRHxqfNSQ54/видео.html

I recommend getting a white board and putting it on your wall, write your to do list for the day there, it’s super helpful
or you can write on a mirror/window with a dry erase marker if you don’t have a whiteboard

I'm guilty of using small envelopes as well as index cards to write my checklists on. 😁

I loved this !!! tbh I mostly struggle with knowing how to break down tasks into smaller to-do's for my checklists 😅 thanks jetpens!!

Before I had a dedicated planner I used to get notepads from the dollar store and do my checklists for daily tasks in there.
I have done that by category: Returns, Home, Call - 1 page for each. They fold nicely together in my purse.
Best suggestion - keep your list in sight! I have so many lists but they're somewhere I can't find :(
Loved this video! I'd also love knowing which pens were featured along with the notebooks. Could that info be added? 🙏🏽 Thank you.
