Transcript of Task status icons
ADVANTAGES OF TRACKING TASKS Tasks that have been acted upon are still visible, permitting you to track
the evolution of a task from initially added to a list to eventually deleted, delegated, or canceled.
By adding status indicators to tasks, you can track the progress of each task.
You can view a completed list of tasks and feel satisfied at a job well done.
Additionally, you can use task lists to review categories of tasks in order to monitor and improve performance.
BULLET JOURNAL From the BulletJournal website:
"The Bullet Journal is a customizable and forgiving organization system. It can be your to-do list, sketchbook, notebook, and diary, but most likely, it will be all of the above. It will teach you to do more with less."
FRANKLINCOVEY FranklinCovey is a productivity
company focused on performance improvement.
According to the company's website, "We help organizations achieve results that require a change in human behavior."
Co-founded by Stephen Covey, much of the content is based on Covey's book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People."
SKETCHNOTE WORKBOOK Mike Rohde, author In the Sketchnote Workbook,
Mike Rohde walks readers through specific ways to enhance visual notes and organization.
UNKNOWN SOURCE I recently came across this set
of indicators, but was unable to relocate the source for this post. However, I wanted to include it because it is slightly different than those included thus far.
The small circles remind me of the achievement tests I had to take in school and of the satisfaction of filling in each circle completely with my #2 pencil.
DOUGLASGPRATT.COM TASKS As I have previously written in a
post on my DIY planner, I dedicate one section of my weekly planning pages to tasks.
My set of indicators is modified from the FranklinCovey indicator list.
DOUGLASGPRATT.COM NOTES In a separate section of my weekly
planning pages, I also have space for notes from meetings, observations, and other interesting tidbits. When taking notes from various meetings, I usually use some sort of bullets to record each agenda item. If an action item is assigned to me - or I assign it to myself - I use the status icons below to ensure that it stands out from the routine agenda items.
I also use this set of icons when making notes on handouts or other documents. In these situations, I usually create a task list on the first page of the document.
