A tickler system is a set of folders assigned to days of the week. To use it, you decide what day to do a task and put it into the number pocket that correlates with the date. It's called a ticker system because it helps you organize your tasks daily. I love the tickler system. It is an accordion enclosed file that has 31 pockets to manage your daily tasks.

It organizes your time and day in the following ways:
Whatever tasks you have to do get put into the day you chose to do them by.
If you have a deadline you can put it in a few days a head of time. For example, if you have a paper due on the 6th of January, you can put it in your tickler file in pocket number 2 to get started on the paper early.
It helps organize your time because you have to plan out what day to do what task.
you actually have a place to put all of the papers/projects you are currently working on.

I found this particular tickler file is great for a few reasons:
1. I have rarely seen an attractive tickler file for you desk and this one actually is.
2. It goes on your desk top, a great reminder to look in your tickler file.
3. It has a drawer for extra office supplies that correlate to your paper, such as sticky notes and staples.
I have a great deal of clients that just can't seem to let go of writing notes on sticky notes or note cards. They also tend to be visual. This product is excellent for such a person: http://tinyurl.com/5ek7c

The wooden holder looks like a set of numerous steps. It is made to go on your desk top. It has steps to hold your note cards. This is a perfect idea for the visual stuck on writing notes!
