There is no need in you reusing an unsuccessful scheduling system if you know it didn't meet your needs before. Do a pros and cons list of what went well and what went wrong the year before. Some key questions you can ask are:</p>

I find there are certain tools that seem more conducive to certain types of lifestyles so it's important for you to identify your style and what you need your scheduling tool to do. Using myself as an example, I am an extremely busy person. I have my work calendar, my THB calendar, my immediate family calendar and my extended family's calendar...then all the various organizations I belong to go on my personal calendar. Now, if I tried to keep up with all those calendars individually I would lose my mind because although I am involved in a lot of things I am only one person. So, I would encourage you not to try to have twenty different calendars but to identify your needs in each of those calendar appointment types so you can pick one tool that can address most if not all of your needs. Same goes for your task lists and how you maintain them. Is it better to keep them together in one platform or would your rather have one platform that is strictly work and one that is personal.</p>

This is a personal choice, but I want to encourage you to think outside the box here and consider making a change if you are team physical. There are pros and cons in each option and being 100% transparent here I use both a physical system and an electronic system. There is something about physically writing things down, but that is when I am in the moment or act of something. It helps me remember if I write something down. I, however, transfer that to my electronic system once I am back at my desk or am reviewing my day. Why do I do this? It helps me remember bits and pieces. The initial act of writing things down puts it in the first layer of my brain and if I haven't finished whatever it is (so at the end of the day) I transfer it to my calendar or task list so it moves to the second layer of my brain and also enables me to set a reminder if one is needed. Now, that is MY SYSTEM...I by no means am suggesting that you copy it. I do, however, want you to think about your system or lack of a system and evaluate which system is going to be best for you after reading the pros and cons below. These are in no particular order and the list is not all exhaustive:</p>
