Whiteboard-It.

This morning, I admit, I was a little bit disorganized.  I had a good idea of what I had to do but really didn't have a great starting place.  So, I took the first 20mins and filled out a whiteboard with all of my tasks and was able to get a bigger picture going to work from.  Then, a collegue of mine who I am working on this particular project with came over and we were able to go through things and solve some stuff in a productive manner.  Super Useful!

The other tool that is a more recent one to my daily workings is Microsoft One Note.  Instead of toating around a notebook, you can just open up a notebook on your desktop, add chapters, new pages and create a one-stop for all of your informaiton.  I find it especially useful in meetings when I can type faster than I can write.

Recommendation for the Day: Find tools to make your life easier!
