Eddie Garcia asked what programs I use to try and keep focused and manage my time.
I use an online calendar is the biggest thing, it is CRM Time Management and it allows me to plan daily and also build goals and objectives along with daily tasks that I need to get done.
Tried going back to a paper planner but like using my laptop and phone for notes while still carrying a journal for business meetings.  I see the phone as a distraction when talking with people and have had comments that the feel I am listening to them when taking notes in front of them not on a computer or phone.
The other thing is a routine every morning is email and planning and follow up for the week.
The time management tool is an online one from Franklin Covey and is what I used in the past to be successful.
