Part of my New Year plan is starting with a clean slate - purging all the negative thoughts, bad memories, and toxic life elements - making room for inspiration, second chances, memories, and positivity. Okay that was deep! Haha but don’t we all need a reset button this coming 2018? We all start with writing big goals and breaking it down into little goals. Personally, it is important for me to write it down - my goals, thoughts, finances, declarations, and so on. While others find digital planning and organizing more compatible with their lifestyle, I’m big on writing on actual journals and planners. Although I’m guilty of being one of them who doesn’t finish a planner, this year I COMMIT to finally pushing through a planner to the very last day of 2018. There are endless options but this certain planner caught my eyes when it was introduced to me by my friend Ceejay. This is the CNS Design Your Life planner and I got mine for Php620.00. Here are the reasons why I’m over the moon about it.
The design of this planner is SO ME. The color palette? very Lights and Latte.
Every month is a unique theme. May is my favorite.
Surprise! Lots of stickers!
Monthly overview. I cannot expound how useful this is for me. It allows me to have an overview of all the events and tasks I'll encounter for the month.
Expense tracker - a bit hassle but I need to religiously accomplish this!
"Listers Gonna List" section for all the necessary lists - the space isn't enough for all our lists!
A very comprehensive cash flow spread which all of us need - again, tedious but NECESSARY! Fact: I also keep a digital copy (excel) of my cash flow for easier editing and formula inputs.
A travel planner section - it's detailed: what to bring (categorized as toiletries, electronics, etc), where to stay, flight information, and your itinerary.
"The Last Time" section to track the last time you did some recurring life activities - dental appointment, haircut, dog grooming. The list goes on.
Here are the summarized features from their website.
The planner is not for everyone. It is a bulky and might not suit you if you are used to compact planners. In my case, it's perfect since I need a planner which is comprehensive and complete. I don't mind carrying a huge notebook if it carries all the info I need. Yup, I carry it everywhere I go #securityblanket. I'm halfway through January and I'm love using it. It does make me more productive and motivated to achieve both the little short term and big long term goals.
Check their website to order. They also have other designs to suit different planner needs and preferences.
I want to hear from you! What's your style in organizing and planning? Share your tips on the comments!
