All of a Sudden, FranklinCovey Sucks

I need a new binder for my Franklin planner this year along with next year’s refill.  The binder I would have liked is $139.00.  Now, I’ve got some resentment toward this:

The initial kit was about $100, and the first binder (current one) hasn’t lasted one year.  How the hell am I going to justify paying $140 for the fucking binder and then $40 for the paper that goes in it?  That’s averaging $140 per year just to “organize” my time and tasks.  Doesn’t seem efficient.  I think I’ll quit carrying this stupid thing, and patent my own life-prioritizing algorithms for simplicity and organization.  Then I’ll be like Stephen Covey.

Maybe I’ll just go paperless.  Hell, I’ve got planzo for my calendar and tasks, a mobile phone for my contacts’ phone numbers, a tablet computer for all other communication, and a wonderful spouse for tracking the money.  Screw this Weekly Compass crap.  Using the silly thing takes more time than I have allotted for it.
