Satisfaction
February 27th
We have a growing number of ABP1 fans out there.
A forest ranger wrote to tell us how much she likes the format to record field notes and daily tasks. We also spotted a February 21 mention of this particular planner on the blog, New Kid on the Hallway. Another blogger, Jeri Dansky, cited it in her “Agendas for a Mom” post.
The ABP1 has lots of room for notes and lists. One thing the “New Kid” blogger said that particularly resonated with me is that her paper planner is “one of my last refuges from the digital world…There’s something really satisfying about crossing out by hand a task that I’ve completed - it’s more more tactile than clicking a check-box and seeing strikethrough text appear.”

What a fantastic format, with the column on the left for appointments and the rest of the page open for notes and lists. I have tried several times in the past to use a day-per-page book, because I like the idea of one day per page, but I always wind up going back to a week at a view for easier forward planning. I would love to hear how people use their day-per-page format books, and how they manage their forward planning and upcoming deadlines.
