I use three whiteboards in my office to organise almost everything that matters.
One holds my daily, weekly and monthly routines. Another keeps track of cash flow, yearly goals, monthly goals and practical jobs around the house and studio. The third is more free-flowing — it holds the next steps on bigger projects and changes constantly as those projects move forward.
Most of it is written in black. Red is for what matters now, or what’s been completed.
What I like most about whiteboards is that they stay visible. I can pause from deskwork, swivel my chair around and look at the bigger picture without opening an app, searching through notes or disappearing into another screen.
This episode is about why that physical visibility matters, how I use the three boards differently, and why I think a good system should be simple enough to change whenever your life changes.
