I love my Happy Planner.
If someone were to ask me what planner I recommend I would for sure say The Happy Planner. It has colorful designs, customizable pages, and a lot of unique features. The Happy Planner offers a fun and functional way to keep your life organized. If you already have one or you are thinking about purchasing, here are five tips to help you make the most of your Happy Planner.
- Choose the right size and layout
The Happy Planner comes in several different sizes and layouts, so it’s important to choose the one that best fits your needs. If you have a lot of appointments and tasks, a larger planner with hourly or daily layouts might be best. If you prefer to plan your week at a glance, a smaller planner with weekly layouts might be more suitable. I personally have the classic size with expander rings because I like to have the full 12 months available for planning. With the standard rings, you can only fit 6 months at a time normally.
- Get creative with decorating
One of the things that set The Happy Planner apart from other planners is its ability to be customized and decorated. You can add stickers, washi tape, and other embellishments to make your planner truly unique. This can be a fun and creative outlet, and it can also help you stay motivated to use your planner. I have a pouch connected to mine to hold appointment cards and important notes than need to be added to the planner. My favorite sticker packs are the ones geared toward savings and home organization. But, there are so many sticker choices, which is one of my favorite features.
- Use the monthly overview pages
The Happy Planner comes with monthly overview pages that allow you to see your schedule for the entire month at a glance. This is a great way to plan ahead and make sure you don’t forget any important appointments or deadlines. Use these pages to mark down birthdays, holidays, and other special events. I also use mine to make mental notes in general.
- Take advantage of the goal-setting pages
The Happy Planner also comes with goal-setting pages that allow you to set and track your goals. These pages can help you stay motivated and focused on your priorities. Use these pages to set goals for your career, health, finances, or any other area of your life that you want to improve. Most of my goals for the current year are to slow down and save money. I use the goal-setting section heavily to make sure I stay focused.
- Make it a habit
The most important tip for making the most of your Happy Planner is to make it a habit. Set aside a few minutes each day or week to update your planner and make sure you’re on track with your goals. Make it a part of your routine, and soon you’ll find that using your planner becomes second nature. I have an area in my office dedicated to my planner so at the beginning of each week, I prepare my planner and I always know where it is for reference.
I have been using my Happy Planner for a few years now and I don’t see myself changing to any other planners. I also love that I can get accessories at most craft stores and on the Happy Planner website.
