How to Pick a Planner for 2023

The other day the children and I were having breakfast and we were talking about how quickly the month of December has flown by and how rapidly the new year is approaching us.

So I have been looking around at planners for 2023 to plan out the new year with--it's so fun to search for that perfect planner. 

I like using my phone to organize my days, but I also like getting things down on paper so I can see the big picture so I like to use two planners to really help me focus long term--one for everyday life and homeschooling and one for blogging. 

A few ways a planner can be a great blessing:

• Helps you to be a better time manager
• Helps you to increase your productivity
• Decreases stress
• Helps you not forget what is important
• Everything you need in one spot 

The different types of planners are:

• monthly
• monthly/weekly
• pocket
• calendar

And many planners are "goal-setting" focused, which are a great help.

I am a very visual person so I love being able to see how a month is laid out. I can see if we are over scheduling and make sure that we are careful to have breathing room in our calendar. I also like that it gives me a mind map of where we are headed.

Here are a few planners that look helpful:

The Blue Sky Frosted Joselyn above is very pretty and a great price and on sale right now. 

Some of my favorite planners are the Happy Planners- I always like getting at least one every year! The blue floral one can be found HERE.  I am going to list a few more below.
