At most schools you are given planners, but FIT planners are particularly nice because it\u2019s filled with student artwork and there\u2019s a student club that designs the entire planner.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2958\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2958\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2958\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/2015\/04\/10\/notes-from-the-6-train-ultimate-organization\/2015-planner-abm\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,533\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2015-planner-ABM\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;*this is not the FIT  planner, though.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM.jpg\" alt=\"*this is not the FIT  planner, though.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2958\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM-624x416.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/2015-planner-ABM-120x80.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2958\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">*this is not the FIT  planner, though.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>At one point I used this planner religiously, and would make lists on the  sticky notes littered throughout the planner. <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve now begun to explore options organizational options for me since I\u2019m working on a litany of different projects.  I\u2019ve begun looking into the idea of the personal kanban. A kanban is &#8220;allows us to visualize the amount of work we have, and the way that work is carried out.&#8221;  To make it personal one can simply pull it out of the public sphere and apply it to your personal life. The way that I\u2019ve found works for me best is the whiteboard divided into three sections, \u201cBacklog, In Progress, Completed.\u201c It works exceptionally well for me since I&#8217;m a visual and kinetic learner. Moving sticky notes from one section to another section and then off the board makes me pretty excited. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2959\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2959\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2959\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/2015\/04\/10\/notes-from-the-6-train-ultimate-organization\/silvias-board\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"640,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 4S&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1367422869&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.28&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;50&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.033333333333333&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Silvias-board\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;* I prefer color coated sticky notes.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board.jpg\" alt=\"* I prefer color coated sticky notes.\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board-624x468.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/04\/Silvias-board-160x120.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2959\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">* I prefer color coated sticky notes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What about you?
