A6 to do list inserts: brain dump, top three, daily and weekly lists

This A6 to do list gives your A6 ring binder a full section for tasks: 32 undated pages in true A6 (105 by 148 mm, or 4.1 by 5.8 inches). You get a page for emptying your head, priority pages, four daily layouts, four lists for the week and month, pages for errands and shopping, a someday list, project pages and reviews for each week and month. Print the single page file and trim on the crop marks, or use the print-and-cut files with four pages on an A4 sheet or two on a US Letter sheet. Download instantly; nothing is shipped.

A short, clear list feels lighter than a long, messy one. That is the whole idea.

How the A6 to do list clears your day

First, get every task onto paper. Then decide for each one: tackle it right away, schedule it, get help with it or drop it. Choose three priorities before you write out the day, and pick whichever daily format suits: a simple checklist, hourly slots from early morning to evening, must, should and could, or two lighter days sharing one page.

Errands, groceries, phone calls, emails and anything you are waiting on each have a separate page, so little jobs stop crowding the daily list. No dates are printed, so you can reprint favorite pages and begin in whatever week you choose.

Who it is for

• Owners of an A6 six ring binder who want a whole section for tasks and lists
• Busy people who like to clear their heads first and then pick three priorities for the day
• Planners already using general A6 inserts who want dedicated task, errand and someday pages beside them
• Anyone who wants a little task list that fits in a handbag and comes along to the shops or the office

Design and size

• Elegant and minimal: white paper with gentle blush pink touches that save ink
• Wide margins, so a home printer will not crop anything
• True A6, 105 by 148 mm (4.1 by 5.8 inches), portrait, with equal margins left and right so either side can be punched
• Undated: begin in any week of any year and print daily and weekly pages as often as you need
• Cutting files in two versions: A4, where four A6 pages need just two straight cuts, and landscape US Letter, with two A6 pages per sheet. Both have cut lines and a 50 mm square to confirm the scale
• A single page file with crop marks, for printing at home on any paper or at a print shop
• Use it in rings, on a clipboard or coil bound at a copy shop
