Not Being Completely Electronic/Paperless...

One would think that with as many electronic gadgets to my disposal, I would be pretty much paperless.  Not necessarily.

Each year, I order an organizer or "Master Agenda" from Levenger.  I used to get something similar at Container Store for many years, but I really like the Levenger "Master Agenda" format.  I use it to write down all appointments and such.  I feel I have to have a hard back up copy of anything electronic.  I have been down the path of lost data too many times.

I have been keeping up with Jeff Sander's The 5AM Miracle podcast.  He has provided many suggestions for electronic calendars and such, but I have not really had time to invest in them.  If they cost money to sign up for use, then forget it.  I am cheap - there are plenty of apps out there that can do the job for free, if pushed.

I think for myself and many others, this is one traditional habit that is difficult to break.  While I am about to buy another for 2016, I will say this much, I have actually used the Levenger "Master Agenda" all year.  There have been a couple of weeks I have skipped, but not like other years with different agenda products (where I went months, then dropped the product).

Maybe, at some point, I will sort out the best electronic agenda for my needs.  The Calendar on the iPhone is okay, but I need a bit more.  I will say, I have pretty much gone paperless for my bills and checking account.  I still have some issues with Quicken having sync-ing issues, but I can rectify those by reloading the cloud data.  At this point, I am doing a lot better on handling my budget using that application.  It will be just a matter of time to sort out the agenda and calendar pieces.
