May 2020 calendar

December 05, 2018 -Benjamin Franklin once said, "By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail". More people going back to good old fashioned pen and paper for their organizational needs, even in the age of the smartphone. Are they technophobic, or just wired differently perhaps? It's almost as though for some people, a commitment isn't official until it's written on paper.
Let us explore some of our favourite printable calendars and all the advantages that a paper May calendar has to offer, to name but a few :

1. Your month is much easier to reference at a glance.
I like to be able to see all my calendar events, my to-do list, random notes, inspirational quotes, etc. All on the same page and especially one week at a time (Check out our weekly calendars). My schedule is laid out so I can see everything. I especially love to annotate meal planning so I can see when I have time to cook, or when I need to have something quick. I also use the day boxes to remind me of my monthly family happiness goals, as all work and no play simply does not end up well.

2. The act of writing down somthing on paper helps me remember better.
I typically remember things better when I write them down, versus a typing quickly. Its always very helpful to have a physical record of what I've done during the week. Besides, the act of picking up a pen and writing can work your mind differently than when you place your fingers on a keyboard. Crossing out previous days may help you keep better track of your days ahead, and goals achieved.



3. Its Easier to actually create the reminder in the first place.
Just grab your pen and annotate. Additionally, printable calendars don't require updates, or giving anyone access to your daily schedule. I love the ability to see my full schedule, and adjust accordingly. No matter where I am, I simply pick up a pen and update my monthly or weekly plan.



4. Manage your health needs, nutrition and excercise schedule  .
At a glance, you can reference your health and excercise gaols, and the nutrition plan to help you achieve your desired look. Perhaps you're on a strict diet and need to plan meals. Perhaps you are planning a trip to the doctor and need to record some vitals that may be up for discussion. Record as you go on your May planner for optimum health.

5. A similar diary stored somewhere in the cloud feels less tangible, less real.
Instead of sitting down and thinking, What should I do today? I already have a plan mapped out for the week, right at my fingertips. No need to log into anything. A physical, tangible calendar is readily available for me.

9. If you're a project manager, you can weave project work into your day-to-day responsibilities, operational, and management jobs.
The calendar offers a big picture view of the project and helps me see deadlines, split up the month, so that the right tasks are done at the right time. It also helps define priorities for the coming weeks. Keep in mind that calendars are easier to use and plan with than Gantt charts as they show more than just tasks, but also meetings and milestones.

Quote of the day
Entire ignorance is not so terrible or extreme an evil, and is far from being the greatest of all; too much cleverness and too much learning, accompanied with ill bringing-up, are far more fatal. ~ Plato
