' Tickler 101 or it could help to share and learn how to try to make a tickler system'

*2nd time trying to upload post - edit the picture after*

Dear Users, Since I made me paper binder with F G @FocusGuy @FocusGuy tag - there is a section in it 'tickler' [please see image attached] what I did from an idea in my mind - is just literally pin types of stuff in the metal binder (e.g. a receipt of a powder supplement which is something where ... *1 ' or a type of instruction manual of something I have tried to sell and will need check in future? or 3 - type product supplement capsules which I will need to repeat order in future?)

These are the list of things needed to successfully implement tickler

- I review over Allen's resources, book etc what's about tickler
or try to search online about it

This image 2 also makes me think - why haven't other users responded to posts I've shared 3-2 days ago about formatting a type of paper binder - it could be worth I try to ask them again in 7 days or just bump them with this left in tabs'

P.S.

That’s a nice way to set up a tickler! I also like how you’ve made it practical with the binder. That’s what counts for you if it works for you, sometimes it’s just trial and error.

You saw the image of the tickler? for some reason - I don't see it on my screen right now and said it couldn't upload

No - I was trying to share ideas how I should implement a tickler system, giving examples how feel like its totally not working, you misunderstand

What do you want to accomplish with the tickler file? When I started GTD,15 years ago, I used paper and the 43 folders system. Now I put either recurring or one time reminders on my calendar. Any paper with it goes in Action Support folder. The reason I changed is I have so little paper bills or reminders to make the 43 folders useful. I just make an all day event "Pay property taxes" A month before the date due. I put the bill in action support and when that day comes I pay the bill and file the paper. 43 folders was fantastic but outdated to me now because so much is digital anymore.
