I use different color inks for various tasks:
ReplyDeleteDark blue = work during work hours; outside of work hours = various side hustles
Green = inside the house
Pink = outside the house / homestead
Purple = knitting / crafting
Light blue / teal = writing
Black = general
Red = used to cross things off
I have nine colors for my categories. They are routines/organize/plan/GTD turquoise. Family pink, home/vital hunter green, health/wellness purple. Employment blue, finance/ retirement/taxes green, computer/ security red. Genealogy is port red or barn red and leisure is magenta. I'm considering to merge the red and hunter green then call it home information, Safety and Security. I think one of the things Karine was saying was to color code our contexts. I don't think I'll need to do that but I'll consider it if the need arises. My color key is one of those with the colors slightly protruding from the page on the right side. I can see all the affected pages when I fan them to the right

I use colour coding so that I can see at a glance what each entry in my filofax is about:
ReplyDeletepurple for planning (filofax, tasks, journal, etc)
light blue for reading
pink for birthdays and anniversaries
green for finances
dark blue for health (doctor, dentist, etc)
red for anything important
orange for my husband (that is his favourite colour)
black for the cat (vet, cattery)
and I highlight with yellow for critical events / tasks
I use Frixion pens and highlighters so that I can erase if things change or my handwriting needs tidying up :-)
I duplicate everything, including the colour coding, in Google Calendar and an online task list so that I get reminders and haven't lost everything if I lose my filofax. It's time consuming but worth it for peace of mind.
I've simplified to just 7 colors, mostly specific to people.
ReplyDelete2 colors for me (1 work, 1 personal)
1 for special occasions
3 for family members
1 to signify the whole family
