My planning style has changed a lot since I first got started with a paper planner, specifically the Erin Condren Life Planner. Certain things that I used to love just don’t make sense anymore. Now that I’ve settled in to the perfect planning style for me, I thought I would share My Planning Essentials:
As you know, I’ve been getting more and more into decorating my Erin Condren Life Planner with stickers and kits each week. I don’t go all out with kits so that it covers up all the white space, but I do like to use kits and decorative/functional stickers to tie in an overall theme for the week. I’ve found so many cute stickers on Etsy, but some of my favorites are from StickWithMeShop. Recently the shop owner, Jenny, came out with the cutest little sticker book bound with a ring, so you can add to and refill easily. Here’s a quick look at my new StickeRING book:
It can be super exciting to start thinking about taking a fun trip for spring break or a summer vacation, but there are a lot of little details and planning that go into a successful vacation. To prevent yourself from becoming overwhelmed, here are the steps I take, and some basic tips I do every time I’m planning for a vacation:
We’re half way through January; this is a good time to check in and see how you’re progressing towards any new year goals. Remember, you don’t need the new year to start a new thing; you can start at any time. If you have a goal to start fresh with your money and to be intentional with your money this year, now is the time to get going with a budget. If you need a little help figuring out where to start, in this post I’m going to tell you how to make a budget and share nine tips to get out of debt.
As the end of the year gets closer, I like to set aside some time to reflect on the current year and start thinking about goals for the upcoming year. Of course you can set new goals for yourself at any time during the year, but there’s something significant about starting the year fresh and having a clean slate on January 1st. Here’s a look at what I do to set my goals for the new year, and my tips on how to achieve your goals:
I love blogging and getting to share things I love with so many people all over the world. The internet is so great because there is infinite information right at your fingertips, and so many people can contribute to and consume unique content. I love reading your blogs and learning from different people. When I create my own blog posts, I like to write about things I’m interested in and that I think other people would also find interesting/learn from. This post will go over how I plan blog posts using my Erin Condren LifePlanner.

It’s almost a new year — 2016 is right around the corner! It’s the perfect time to start fresh and start thinking about a new planner to help you keep track of your goals and schedules. I absolutely love the Erin Condren Life Planner and I’ve been waiting patiently to finally start using my 2016 Erin Condren Life Planner!
There’s something really nice about beginning a new planner. I love the Erin Condren Life Planners because they are so colorful and fun. It’s easy to stay motivated and really use your planner when it is beautiful and exciting. I’ve lost motivation to use planners in the past and it ends up being a waste of a planner because the year is over and you can’t use it again. With Erin Condren Life Planners, each month is a fresh, new color and there are stickers included in the back of each planner that make you excited to plan and motivated to be organized.
I will be using the new, horizontal layout in my 2016 Life Planner for the first time and I can’t wait. You can read all about my 2016 Horizontal Layout Life Planner Review, but in this post, I wanted to share a few other “accessories” that I use to plan and to make my Life Planner more personalized and fun.
