HOW TO: Manage your time!

- Reader question
I think I have received questions from over 100 readers asking how I manage my time… 1) I never sleep… not that you should follow in my footsteps. 2) I am quite organized with my time – which I think is hereditary (my dad manages to do so much in a day) I also live on Calendars, agendas, organizers etc (if you ever don’t know what to get me for my birthday, get an organizer 
)
I’m a huge fan of Filofax – I use 3 of their organizers in PINK leather (one is also my blog diary!) They have some chic designs that have just come out & have an exciting collaboration coming out with Alice Temperley (can’t wait!)
Another brand I love? Pricier… but I also love Smythson – (love their recent collaboration with Jonathan Saunders which is worth checking out!)
now, the question is… How do YOU organize your time? share below!

I’m a blogger, a university student and I’m about to start a bath & bodycare business so time management is important to me but, I’m naturally an unorganised person so I’m forcing myself to keep my engagements and important dates in a diary and I’ll also be creating a vision board to keep me motivated and to remind me of why I’m doing all of this.
If I’m in the mood to write my schedules and reminders I use my Smythson notebook, love the feathery light papers!
But mostly I use my Blackberry Calender, I tend to forget ALOT so it always buzzes me when there’s something to do, events, birthdays, to-do-lists…etc
I plan my whole day the previous night. Make a to do list and stick to it! Plus I think its really important to prioritise (especially if you’re a student like me with loads of deadlines to meet)
I’m definitely going to try that! I always make a mental note of what I want to get done the next day but it NEVER gets done so, I think having my tasks on a piece of paper for me see will motivate me to get things into motion. Thanks!
me i am a filofax lover too!

I love the Moleskine notebooks, especially in pink
I was wondering the same thing:) I manage my time using a diary,”post it” and a notepad.Every day I make a to do list and write everything I have to complete for the day which is very helpful.Since I’m a final year University student and need to keep track of my assignments. BTW Tala when are you finishing University?!?!
So I just did a little bit of research…and apparently, filofax is sold at the bookstore Magrudy’s in the UAE!!!
( I seriously wish brands would start selling their most stylish products here…and not bring the boring stuff!!
Only thing is, they don’t have these fun, colorful organizers
I’m determined to find one of these…at least a notebook, because I like to write out lists of things i do and tick them off as I go….
you should tell Magrudys!!
I am a FiloFAX addict, I even started blogging about it.. and I live between the UAE and UK and I’ll tell you that the better source of FiloFAX organisers is Kinokuniya Bookstore in Dubai mall. The may get the newer stuff a little later than the UK but they have the best and biggest selection!
They also have the FiloFAX flex but not the Apex though!
However you do it, you do it really well Tala!!!
OMG sooo cute!!
Hey,
Thanks for that, will get some for my girlfriend.
Cheers,
I love those little diaries, seen them at boutique 1 …adorable!!
