When I start working with someone on using a paper planner, I often notice that they neglect to make time for the many steps that don't have fixed date and time associated with them. I call all these steps the invisible work.

For instance, if you have a dinner party in your planner for October 1 at 6pm, you need to write in your planner 6 weeks before to come up with an invite list, 4 weeks before invite people, 2 weeks before choose menu, 1 week before go grocery shopping for nonperishables, 3 days before shop for perishables, 2 days before cook the stuff that can keep and get house in order, 1 day before set the table and cook some more. All of those steps should be in your planner.

This works in your professional life too. October 1 at 10am new client meeting probably started 6-8 weeks before at that networking event you attended, the day after you followed up on LinkedIn, three days later you followed up by email, then you had that zoom call, the follow-up email, then you did some research to think about how you could work together, then you invited them to the meeting, then you prepped all the paperwork and logistics for the meeting, then after the meeting you have weeks of months of follow-up. All those steps should be in your planner.

In this episode I talk about how and why you should do this!
