Overview

In the monthly plan, one should use this as a big picture preview of the upcoming month and each day you should only have one item about the biggest event for that day. Keep it short and concise!!!

Monthly Breakdown

Each day is logged here; furthermore, the following can be recorded:

  1. Goals for the month

  2. Major upcoming tasks for the month

  3. Habits (good to break it down as a daily chart of sorts)

Choose what works for you and continue with it; with the major upcoming tasks, I would suggest putting that in your monthly log.
