![]() ![]() This Budget Planner has areas to focus on paying down debt, reaching savings goals, and tracking monthly spend… by writing it all down. If I paid down a credit card, how do I move the transaction to the right category? Things just never seem to even out the way I want. The problem I always find is that I can never figure out how to make the apps or automatically synced programs work for me. My budget is the biggest issue right now for me from a stress perspective – I don’t know why I can’t get myself together. I don’t really have a planner meant for the usual goal planning or long-term stuff, so we’ll see how I feel in April when I need to think about a new paper planner. She is the first person to tell you that these are not for planning out major events or life goals, it’s specifically about being productive each and every day. Unfortunately this planner is only made for four months and you can buy longer ones (or keep buying them when you need them). I also made a “Declutter” page, marked with a tab, so I can go through and declutter every area of my house, tackling a few spots per week. ![]() I didn’t take a picture of that section but the idea is to pull 1-2 of them from the weekly list and put them in your blocks for certain days. I like that there’s a meal planning section for each week and a place to dump to-dos for the whole week. I have a longer lunch break – I still will work during that period – but include a few more personal items. ![]() The afternoon usually involves interviews, calls, and other collaborative tasks. Reviewing new applicants and sourcing new candidates is a good task for the morning within my workday. Here is my sample block:Īs you can see, I try to get some personal stuff done before work and then split work tasks into each section, based on when it makes sense. You basically split your day into blocks, like you would have in high school most likely for each class, and you set specific to-dos within each block. I purchased this Productivity Planner based on the block scheduling system she has, which I talk about in my linked post here. I linked a lot of videos by Jordan Page (Fun Cheap or Free) and while I don’t think I love her from a personal perspective (feel free to do your own research), I think a lot of the tips and methods make sense. This is my current planner for events (lol – what are events?) or appointments. You can read my detailed review from when I first got this HERE. I will admit that I don’t currently use the to-do lists as much or the daily page planning, but I do sometimes! I just have a lot of planners and find that I don’t keep this tab open on my computer screen like I used to when working in the office? Not sure why. I still use my Artful Agenda, as it syncs up all of my digital calendars and keeps them in one place. I have a lot of planners this year because I personally found that I need to keep things separate in order to be successful. I always love sharing my planner setup for the year! I did still use my planners last year, for the most part – I know 2020 was a bizarre year to try to plan but I usually need SOMETHING to physically or digitally keep track of things, even if it’s just monitoring daily to-dos for work or blogging.
