Planning for 2019
Like everyone this time of year, I am looking back at 2018 and contemplating some changes that I need to make before I jump head first into another year of my life. One of my major goals for 2019 is to be more organized. As hard as a try to be ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE…you know the ones who have their crap together…I just feel like I am always one step behind. Or as my Grams used to say…A day late and a dollar short.
One step I have taken in the LESS DIS-ORGANIZED direction is to find a planner that REALLY works for me. I KNOW what you are going to say…who doesn’t just use their phone???? And I do, but I NEED to see everything written out in front of me. Something about making a list and checking it twice…it’s a thing. Plus the physical act of crossing to-do’s off a list is JUST SO motivating for me. And because I LOVE a good list, this year I decided to try out the SPACES PLANNER because it has PLENTY of spaces to make ALL THE LISTS I WANT!!!
It has the weekly calendar to keep me on track and get me where I need to go, but the REAL gem of the SPACES PLANNER are the SPACES…see what I did there?!?! There are spaces to add lists for ALL sorts of things, meal prep, assignments, bills, ANYTHING you want. Plus there are great PRE-titled lists for shopping, errands, cleaning, etc. I cannot even express to you how happy this planner has made me!!!
And in case you were wondering…it also has a GORGEOUS monthly layout so you can keep track of important dates…AND…
…also a beautiful motivating quote for each month!!!
I couldn’t help myself and got sticker happy with my first week. But I imagine I will go mostly plain and simple for most weeks. Make lots of lists…check things off….REPEAT!! I find that if I get too cute…I don’t want to mess up the pages with markings and cross outs. And since crossing out my to-do’s when I get them T0-DONE is the whole point…I will probably stick to the basics.
So far (you know in one day) I have used my SPACES PLANNER and my CLEAN 15 CHALLENGE printable to begin to get rid of clutter and better use my time. I am SOOO excited to continue to get my life back under control in 2019!!
