This week’s planning hack gets you to consider how you can use color coding to support organization and focus. One of the challenges in today’s work is an overload of data. It is said that “color is one of the first things we take in when looking at an image.” Using color to help sort through the myriad of emails, files and to-dos can create a quick sort. This may help us do things faster and also not feel the “cognitive load” of tasks as much. Consider how you might use color to:
To denote different tasks in my monthly daily tracker, the colors say much more than numbers would. Different colored folders for different tasks and projects – Client files are purple, Writing files are usually blue, Speaking files are yellow, Financial files are red. What could you do with color to help you with your organizing and planning? Best wishes, Jennifer Jennifer Britton - Potentials Realized
