Welcome to Right Brain Planner! This site is published {by @stargardener a creAtive solopreneur} as a {this-is-an-example} resource for other {intuitive} right brain planners.
Right brain planners view daily To-Do's, days of the week, weeks of the month — and life, in general — in random, visual adventures. Our curiosity and multiple interests can sometimes {often} lead us on rabbit trails of distraction.
The mission of this site is to develop and foster a collaborative {wiki} planning system — accommodating the distinct flow of the creative mind — by and for out-of-the-box, right brain thinkers and life-doers.
Right Brain Planner is a free resource.
