Setting up a template of my Monthly Goal Planner
———–
I love journaling.
It helps me to watch life more clearly.
And the clarity guides me to the next step.
By journaling, my life could become my teacher.
Last month, I tried a new format of a planner.
It’s a simplified version of journaling. It helped me to see a bigger picture of what’s going on in my life.
In designing the format, I was influenced by two books:
THE ONE THING by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan
THE MIRACLE MORNING by Hal Elrod
How did I use this monthly goal planner?
———–
I printed out the form and posted it on the wall that I could see easily.
Every morning, I stood in front of the planner. After reading it, I visualized what I could create today and this month.
Picked today’s ONE THING and wrote it down on today’s cell. I chose the ONE Thing by asking the question (as suggested by the book “THE ONE THING”):
“What’s the ONE thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or even unnecessary?”
Then, drew a line from the left bottom corner to the right top corner on the cell. The upward stroke ↗ symbolizes the start of the day.
In the evening, I stood in front of the planner again. After reading it, I reviewed my day and drew a line from the left top corner to the right bottom corner. The downward stroke ↘ symbolizes the end of the day.
At the end of the month, after reviewing the month and I saved it in my binder for the yearly review.
