Have you ever noticed how difficult it is to wait when you don’t understand the source of the delay?

When traffic is moving along and we can see a little way down the highway we’re good but enter delay, stop and go and the inability to see what is ahead and tension rises.

Humans, for the most part, like predictability. There is a slice of population who thrive on adventure but for the most part we take comfort in routine and organization.

When we know where to go and what time to be there we feel better; when we know where things go we can easily get them back and keep our space clean which keeps the stress level down.

Calendars and planners can be great tools for keeping your schedule on track and preserving predictability; whether electronic or paper. Don’t wait for the new year to implement plans to keep yourself organized.

Paper calendars are great for the tactile person who likes to see and feel their schedule. Electronic calendars are perfect if you need to syncronize with other calendars or other associates.

Set yourself up for success – know where you’re going each day and keep the road smooth so that if you should get stuck in traffic temporarily or lose site of where you’re going you wont’ feel stressed out – just consult the calendar!
