When is a good time to plan? How can you be consistent with planning? How can creative planning benefit you? Keep reading as I break down each area.
When to plan?
The short answer is whenever you want, but I like to take a little time on Sundays to plan. Sometimes I plan at home and sometimes I go to a coffee shop or the library to plan. Picking a time where you find yourself not so busy is ideal. So for me that's anytime after 4 PM on Sundays. Tip: Whatever time you choose, set an alarm for it in your phone to remind you.
How can you be consistent?
If you find yourself being inconsistent, it may be that you lack motivation or desire to plan. Ask yourself, what could excite me about planning? What goals do I want to work on? How can I celebrate myself?
Things to plan:
Budget
Outings with friends
Appointments
Goals
Household Chores
Errands
Vacations
Books to read
Self-Care

How can creative planning benefit you?
Taking time to plan and use your planner supplies is an investment in yourself. It can ease anxiety to plan out some of the responsibilities and goals on your mind. Also seeing those pretty planner supplies can give you that daily dose of dopamine we all need. Planning can truly be a form of self-care. Remember you deserve that few minutes a day or during the week to focus on you!
