Funny too . . . I just put every to-do aside yesterday and rearranged my office. I felt like I just couldn't move forward until I had a tidied up space and the clutter from last year was banished at last. As my daughter would say after taking a long swig of milk . . . "ahhhhh."

PDA (palm) this I can carry with me when I travel and run around the world and to schedule daily appointments. 2. Daytimer desk size 2 page per day, which I can use as a backup calendar, detailed to do list and log of my daily activities 3. A 3-month at a time dry erase wall calendar so I can see the next 90 days at a glance. This is great for knowing the big picture at any given time. I could not imagine doing without any one tool, but for me they all work great as a package. You would think it is overwhelming, but it actually helps me keep my head on straight. I am making a YouTube video for how I work them together and post it on my blog.

As an online or offline entrepreneur, you always have to strive to be the best, and getting there by doing a sloppy job or looking for shortcuts simply isn't possible.

Now, this particular post reminds me of Stephen Covey's Seven Effective Habits.. book. Any inspirations? I do like the metaphor you have used though about colorng outside tne line, I reckon its about getting stuff done that more important in a real world rather than brooding too muh like Hamlet in 'to be, or not to be' dilemma. I also have an old blog where I mutter about these things at http://hershbhardwaj.blogspot.com I m sorry if i shouldn't have posted the blog link here. Hersh Hey there,
