Q. Why calendars?
A. I believe products should be evidence of our beliefs and I believe time is our most valuable resource. Are we appropriately thoughtful about our relationship with time and how we spend it? I know from decades of experimentation that a well designed calendar and the discipline to use it in specific ways can inspire us all to be aware of and claim ownership of our time.
If we don't plan our own time, someone else will.
What a difference a (well-planned) year makes.

Q. How do I use it?

I have two each year and use them differently. One for planning and one for remembering.
Planning - Plan your year in advance, plan your year as you go. Add celebrations (birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, weddings, date nights). Make and add important annual doctor's appointments. Plan and add vacations. Plan and add personal days off. Invite visitors to visit you, pick a date and pencil them in.
Remembering - At the end of each day, write something that you want to remember about the day you just had. Something great, something impactful, something you are grateful for, something that made you laugh....
