Letting extraneous crap build up in your calendar is an [[Error Trap]]. You develop a habit of not actually _doing_ the things in your calendar. Your calendar becomes less important. You miss things. You struggle more with actually holding yourself accountable to your [[Time Blocking]] practice. [[Calendars are the Most Important Productivity Tool]] - and watering yours down with false commitments or sliding [[Deadlines and "Do" Dates|"do" dates]] sets up a bad habit. Your calendar doesn't have to be free from events (although there are plenty of notes in here that might suggest that - [[Hell Yes or No]]), but it **does** need to be something you care about & follow if it is to be useful. **** # More ## Source - [[Getting Things Done The Art of Stress-Free Productivity]] ## Related
