Organize yourself: Free downloadable To-Do list template

Posted on | June 25, 2009 24 Comments | e-mail | print

Now available, thanks to popular demand! Where popular = one person!

Update 7/27: ‘Someday’ pdf now available too!

Download here.

Instructions:

  • Download PDF
  • Print
  • Write stuff on it
  • Hang on fridge
  • Kick ass
  • Take names
  • Stop for iced tea

I like to write down each and everything that needs my attention, no matter how small. Under ‘Notes,’ I like to write down things I am waiting on: e-mails without which I can’t continue on projects, for example, or phone calls, or packages that are due to arrive in the mail — anything I need to finish my tasks that isn’t here yet. This document has two pages: the first page has ‘Notes,’ and the second is all lines.

getting things done

I have more versions, including PROJECTS and SOMEDAY*. I posted the photo above** showing how I use them in conjunction with a customized grocery list and a weekly menu to keep my ship shipshape — check it for notes and a closer look.

If enough people (i.e. popular+1) request, I could throw the other versions up on the site, too. Otherwise you can marvel at my ability to draw straight lines in Pages. It is quite amazing.

*SOMEDAY pad now available here! Click to download PDF.

**The EAT pad is killer, and I love it, but I didn’t make it. Get one of your own at knockknock.biz. I highly recommend their stuff.

    Personally, I’m a fan of the “Dude, don’t forget to buy” list. If I posted that, I wonder if the boys would complain LESS about the lack of food in the house? (i.e., I wonder if they’d realize that I AM NOT A MIND READER.)

    p.s. @meghan: the weekly menu came from knockknock.biz, purveyors of fine and humorous paper products.

    OK, I could swear another one was up for, like, a millisecond and I missed it.

    I have fridge envy - love your lists. Please post ‘em all and a huge thank you for sharing! Pre-kids, I was a teacher and got a thrill from creating useful templates/lists/charts to share with other teachers (not busywork for students, but to manage our forests of paperwork). So I TOTALLY appreciate your ability to draw straight lines! Plus, your graphics are simply cool.

    Fantastic fridge photo - made me smile since my husband doesn’t understand my need for so many lists. Keep our family running, they do.

    Thanks for the cool template. I will use these for myself.

    But would love one that say “SH*T my husband needs to do! and not someday NOW”

    I am the organizer and he is the free spirit so it is a like trying to herd cats to get him to do simple stuff like sign his paycheck. Thank God I learned how to forge his name!
