  • To-Do Lists, Planners and Systems, Oh My!
    Jan 20 2025

    We're past "Quitter's Day", when most people drop their New Years Resolutions. In this episode we ask, "How do you keep track of your goals & intentions?" We look at several different methods, everything from the simple checklist to the much more complex Franklin-Covey method. We also review "The Essentialism Planner" (Dr. Walker's Christmas gift to Wende's husband!)

    If you liked this episode, be sure to listen to our New Year's episode about a better alternative to New Year's Resolutions.
