I& #39;m threading together old tweets about bullet journaling/scheduling, mostly for my own interest
Please ignore if you don& #39;t care ;)
Fall 2018 I was using day-by-day reverse scheduling. I actually kind of miss this, maybe I should try it again... https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1048239390127022082">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...

I think I started playing with weekly layouts in Spring 2019 but I don& #39;t have pictures (those notebooks are at the office)
But Fall 2019 I was using this weekly layout... https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1196466214865920001">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...

... and filling up boxes with the number of hours I worked in different categories (I have always favored a color-by-day approach to color coordinating) https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1215711834038308865">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...
Side note #1: this thread has notes about note-taking
I don& #39;t see myself switching away from the Leuchtturm1917 any time soon, I love them https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1224462332639809537">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...

Side note #2: Waterproof pens are important in my life
I& #39;ve been trying to find a good smearproof highlighter, hmu with recommendations https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1234569601486393345">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...

Spring 2020 I switched to a weekly layout with an hour-by-hour schedule. I also started recording accomplishments rather than making checklists, to try and keep my focus positive
March 2020, weeks 3&4 of work from home: I tried scheduling hour-long blocks of work time
This worked well in week 3, and totally fell apart in week 4 :) https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1245839838164725760">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...

Weeks 3&4 of WFH, I also tried assigning myself 12 key hour-long tasks to focus on (a theoretically manageable number based on my free hours per week)
March 2020, Week 5 of WFH: I abandoned the hourly schedule, but kept the "Key Tasks". It worked ok (for that week, anyway, wfh is a struggle y& #39;all) https://twitter.com/mayhplumb/status/1250827187923693571">https://twitter.com/mayhplumb...
^ lol the above schedule was in April, I& #39;m real good at time right now, obv
This week, April 2020, Week 6 of ProjectPandemicWFH2020: I am using this layout which I hate and will not be using again. It& #39;s just ugly.

Side note #3: For a long time I tracked my time with Boosted, which I still appreciate as a nice simple app
But in early July I started using Toggl — I don& #39;t like the mobile app as much, but the web app is really nice and it has some more robust features

Week 25 of WFH, Year 4 of grad school, shifting into ABD-land... I& #39;m thinking a lot about how to structure my time!
One change I& #39;ve made recently is I plan my daily to-do& #39;s for the whole week in advance
