6° 2.0 Episode 3 – 3rd Degree – Dragons and Whimsy

I visited Jaedia over at Dragons and Whimsy back in May when she posted about the Discord server setup for game bloggers, now she’s looking at getting organized.

Dragons and Whimsy – Let’s Talk Planners

Planners, bullet journals, stationary and Filofax, she dives deep into the world of getting organized in this post. I have a love/hate relationship with these things where I spend too much time playing around with the tools and not enough time getting things actually done. Back in the day, I used a Franklin planner but as time moved on, I moved on to the simplicity and versatility of a Moleskine. It was small enough to fit in my pocket and I could use it to take any note without worrying about finding a specific day or page type. Now though, I’m mostly digital. I use Evernote for everything and many times use Drafts to get stuff into Evernote. Sure, I still use a moleskine, but then I transfer the note to digital as soon as I can.

Jaedia has been using a Collins personal organizer and loves it. Her plan is to pretty up the cover with cross stitch and I think that’s great. It’s always cool to put a personal touch on something you use on a daily basis. And once the outside is customized, she’s trying to figure out what to use it for and how to organize things inside. It’s a neat post and an interesting departure from the standard gaming posts I usually cover in my 6° reading.
