Confession: I still use my desktop planner, bastard off-brand binder, Daytimer monthly tabs and page marker, and Dayrunner calendar pages, with the inspiration pages I make and add in at random.
Writing it down makes it real.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

That's part of why I've moved to a paper planner on my desk, and a paper mini calendar in my purse. If I don't write it down, I won't remember to do it.
Paper and pen is the only way I can remember anything. I buy a planner every year, plus a wall calendar, and I have lists all over the house.
I love pen and paper, but the convenience of having it all in this little machine that fits into my pocket (when my outfit has pockets). I often plan or write things out on paper, then transfer them into the phone/tablet/computer.

This is me. I write stuff down on paper and then put everything into Google. (And then I print out a weekly calendar to stick on the fridge so it all comes full circle.)
If it isn't on my phone/computer it doesn't exist. In the unlikely event that I write something down I often end up staring at it and wondering what it meant.
I keep trying to transfer to an electronic system, but I can't. I am not very organized on paper either, but somehow writing it down at least makes it stick in my head. Also computer reminders make me not want to do whatever!
My system is written down, but I set alarms on my phone for things that I *must* do at a specific time (like taking meds, or trying to get tickets to a concert as soon as they go on sale).
Okay, as I was typing that ^^^^, I realized I do use the calendar on my computer, too, for appointments and birthdays and reminders to pay bills (and taxes) and book release dates. My daily to-do list is what I use pen and paper for.
My system has been electronic since I purchased my first Palm Pilot in the 90s.
I've been trying to get into bullet journaling. But not really for calendaring—gotta keep that electronic. But to-do lists and trackers and stuff, paper is my jam.
