I’ve confessed just how much I love my planner before, but I’ve never really shown you a glimpse into how I functionally use it. But today, that changes! Keep reading to find out how I plan to perfection.
Before I really get into it, I should let you know that I use my planner to capture every little task or thought that I have. For me, it’s so therapeutic to know that everything is written down in one spot and that I don’t have to bother keeping it all stored in my head.
Because I write so much down in my planner, I need a system to distinguish between different tracks of work and to-do’s. What’s that system? So glad you asked!
Everything I write down in my planner falls into 1 of 5 categories:
- Social: Weekend plans, important dates (ie: birthdays, anniversaries, etc.), travel plans
- To-do’s: Various chores that I need to take care of
- Work: This includes all things business, from my day job to my finances
- Gym: The classes that I sign up for go here
- Blog: Any and all work I need to do for The Tidy Corner
